在 COP29 上,做出了一项决定,以确保包括小岛屿国家、最不发达国家和非洲国家在内的发展中国家期待已久的损失和损害基金全面运作。这与阿塞拜疆共和国总统伊利哈姆·阿利耶夫先生在担任 COP29 主席国期间设定的优先事项一致,即应对气候变化对小岛屿国家的影响所带来的挑战。
在埃及举行的 COP27 期间同意设立损失和损害基金。该基金旨在为最易受气候变化影响的国家提供财政援助。
在阿拉伯联合酋长国举行的 COP28 期间,决定启动该基金的运营。
COP29 主席国与董事会和世界银行密切合作,采取了重要措施来确保基金的运作。今年 9 月,在巴库举行的基金第三次董事会会议上,采取了关键措施来开始运营,包括任命 Ibrahima Cheikh Diong 为基金执行董事。
在 COP29 的框架内,签署了与损失和损害基金相关的几项重要协议。这些协议包括基金组织董事会与世界银行之间的“受托人协议”和“秘书处托管协议”,以及基金组织董事会与东道国菲律宾共和国之间的“东道国协议”。
迄今为止,基金承诺的财政支持总额超过 7.3 亿美元。
凭借这些成就,损失与损害基金将能够从 2025 年开始为项目提供资金。这标志着阿塞拜疆担任 COP29 主席国的又一次成功。
At COP29, a decision was made to ensure the full operationalization of the Loss and Damage Fund, long awaited by developing countries, including small island states, least developed countries, and African nations. This aligns with the priority set by the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Mr. Ilham Aliyev, to address the challenges posed by climate change impacts on small island states under the COP29 Presidency.
The establishment of the Loss and Damage Fund was agreed upon during COP27 held in Egypt. The fund aims to provide financial assistance to countries most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change.
During COP28 in the United Arab Emirates, a decision was made to launch the Fund's operations.
The COP29 Presidency has taken significant steps to ensure the Fund's operationalization, working closely with its Board and the World Bank. In September of this year, during the Fund's third Board meeting held in Baku, critical measures were taken to commence its operations, including the appointment of Ibrahima Cheikh Diong as the Fund's Executive Director.
Within the framework of COP29, several important agreements related to the Loss and Damage Fund were signed. These include the "Trustee Agreement" and "Secretariat Hosting Agreement" between the Fund's Board and the World Bank, as well as the "Host Country Agreement" between the Fund's Board and the host country, the Republic of the Philippines.
To date, the total pledged financial support for the Fund exceeds $730 million.
With these achievements, the Loss and Damage Fund will be able to start financing projects beginning in 2025. This marks yet another success of Azerbaijan's COP29 Presidency.
