Finance Ministers hold the keys to accelerating climate action. They are most clearly aware of the risks posed by climate change and recognize how taking action could unlock trillions in investments and create millions of jobs by 2030.

The Coalition of Finance Ministers for Climate Action brings together fiscal and economic policymakers from over 100 countries to lead the global climate response and secure a just transition towards low-carbon, resilient development.
