IMF published this video item, entitled “Addressing Governance and Corruption Challenges in the response to Climate Change – COP28” – below is their description.
Investing in climate change resilience requires large scale financing. The potential for corruption to exacerbate the challenge, undermine the effectiveness of the response and increase costs means that better governance must be at the heart of the climate response. Acting fast will mean leveraging the existing anticorruption architecture and catalyzing coalitions in a highly coordinated way. In this joint event with the World Bank, panelists will discuss corruption vulnerabilities that are specific to the green transition and how to address them.
PANELISTS:
Shuang Liu, China Finance Director, World Resources Institute
Tsakani Maluleke, Auditor-General, South Africa
Mark Robinson, Executive Director, Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative
Moderator: Laury Haytayan, MENA Director, Natural Resource Governance Institute
