The world’s first comprehensive survey of MoFs was designed to understand existing analytical capabilities for driving climate action.

On June 3, 2025, the Coalition hosted the launch event of its Economic Analysis for Green and Resilient Transitions initiative under Helsinki Principle 4. This milestone event marked the culmination of a year-long effort to equip Ministries of Finance with the tools and insights needed to navigate climate-related economic challenges and opportunities. The virtual event drew strong engagement, with 135 participants joining online from across the Coalition membership and the Technical Advisory and Steering Groups.

The session featured the launch of the Global Survey of Ministries of Finance, the world’s first survey of nearly 60 Ministries, exploring their experiences and needs in using economic analysis for climate action; a Compendium of Practice, developed with inputs from over 120 experts and institutions, offering a curated collection of analytical tools, country experiences, and emerging practices; and two thematic reports on Fiscal Challenges and Opportunities and Physical Climate Risk and Adaptation, addressing key areas where Ministries of Finance can play a leadership role.

Ministry representatives from Italy and Sierra Leone presented real-world examples of how they are building analytical capacity to support climate-informed policymaking. The event also included perspectives from Denmark, Uganda, the Netherlands, and the Grantham Research Institute at LSE, which led the presentation of the initiative’s key findings.

The event underscored the importance of equipping Ministries of Finance with practical tools and knowledge, while also fostering a collaborative ecosystem of support among institutional partners, member countries, and thematic experts.
