And those directly affected should have a seat at the table – their meaningful participation is key to effective and equitable action.

States attending the COP-26 meeting in Glasgow, starting Sunday, need to fulfil their existing climate finance commitments, and indeed increase them - not ignore them for a second year in a row. Only urgent, priority action can mitigate or avert disasters that will have huge – and in some cases lethal – impacts on all of us, especially our children and grandchildren.
We need laws to be passed, programmes to be implemented and investments to be swiftly and properly funded, without further delay.
