Abstract: This research paper presents a conceptual framework to analyze the reporting and mapping of climate finance. In particular, the paper discusses the most relevant concepts and definitions with respect to climate-related development finance. It presents a comprehensive overview of the most important methodologies used to report and map climate finance and discusses the strengths and weaknesses of each methodology. In a second paper (due in 2016), we will use this conceptual framework to draw up a comprehensive overview of the current reporting on official climate-related development finance in Belgium, distinguishing between the different levels of governance. Based on this mapping exercise, we will then identify potential gaps in the reporting of official climate-related development finance in Belgium.
