“The context for this briefing paper is a
civil society meeting hosted by the Corruption and Governance Programme of the
Institute for Security Studies (ISS) in
Cape Town in September 2010. Experts based
in Africa, Asia and Latin America presented
papers discussing the regional contexts and
the national and subnational experiences
with climate funds in their regions. These
papers have been compiled into an ISS report
on monitoring the governance of climate
finance. The study offers an approach that
is grounded in the realities and common experiences in funding arrangements across
developing countries in the three regions
studied. The issues raised here reflect on
some of the findings of that report.”
