1 Progress towards tracking public and private climate finance: the case of Latin America. Sandra Guzmán General Coordinator GFLAC

2 TRANSPARENCY Climate finance governance scheme. ACCOUNTABILITY Is climate change part of the national planning? DEVELOPED Is the international cooperation helping countries to reduce emissions and vulnerability? National Planning International Cooperation NATIONAL SUB NATIONAL National Budget International Commitments Are the countries allocating national budget to deal with climate change? DEVELOPING Are the countries complying with their obligations under the UNFCCC (CBDR)? SOCIAL PARTICIPATION IMPACT EFFECTIVE EFFICIENT COHERENT SUSTAINABLE EQUITABLE SUFFICIENT HUMAN RIGHTS, GENDER EQUITY AND SUSTAINABILITY INCLUSIVE

3 Regional perspective Latin America is not the main destination of climate finance Total: 21 billions USD 2014 Main recipients: Peru (COP20), Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico and Brazil. Lack of finance in Central America Distribution: Mitigation (84-90%) and 8% adaptation ECLAC, 2015

5 Methodology International climate policy adopted International climate finance flows received National climate policy National public budget allocated

6 Analysis criteria Activities labelled as climate change Mitigation related activities Adaptation related activities Both /mitigation and adaptation. Exclusion criteria/ contraire activities

7 Participant Countries 2014 Argentina Chile Ecuador Peru 2015 Bolivia Guatemala Honduras Nicaragua International flows National flows

8 Key challenges Lack of common understanding about what climate finance means (mitigation, adaptation, both, etc.) Lack of monitoring and reporting systems (some systems for finance for development) Lack of transparency and access to information (old or not public information) No inclusive participation of key stakeholders in the climate finance monitoring Lack of institutional coordination and institutional arrangements to organize the information about climate finance flows.

21 Positive + Negative Positive CC is part of the planning process in all the countries CC actions are being implemented Negative Non-consistency between cc policy and the rest of the planning system More money to actions that cause the problem CC is not a priority (lack of understanding)

22 Towards an MRV system on finance Measuring Common definitions Cycle of finance Volume Complementary finance Reporting Public, transparent and accessible platforms to report Verifying Common criteria Impact analysis Safeguards and externalities

23 Recommendations for COP21 Mandate to the Standing Committee on Finance to elaborate common criteria (for both donors and recipients) using the same methods and tools Develop clear working plan for each element of the MRV (SCF) Include in the negotiation text the MRV on finance (Article 6 and Article 9) Connect MRV on finance with INDCs (in Latin America only two countries included this: Peru and Colombia) National strategies on climate finance to promote coherence (Argentina 1 versus 48 USD)
