Working Papers from eSocialSciences

Abstract: Ambitious actions taken to reduce urban emissions and increase resilience can enhance cities’ quality of life and social equity in far-reaching ways.4 However, building just cities in an era of climate change will require well-considered investment at an unprecedented scale – a challenge far from resolved today. The objective of this briefing is to characterise this urban climate investment challenge across multiple dimensions, survey financial pathways emerging today and consider future directions. This discussion supports a number of COP26 goals, particular its key commitment to mobilise finance. COP26 Briefing
