“Loss and Damage Financing: Science, Policy and Practice”
The High Meadows Environmental Institute (HMEI) will host a symposium “Loss and Damage Financing: Science, Policy and Practice” on Friday, April 26, beginning at 10:00 a.m., in Princeton Neuroscience Institute, Room A32.
The symposium will explore questions around loss and damage financing and its future trajectory. Tied to this is an interest in the way climate finance towards loss and damage financing will be balanced between global and national-level climate adaptation and mitigation goals. The symposium will serve as a forum to reflect on this landmark achievement in global climate negotiations and its potential for advancing just and equitable global climate action. The discussions will shed light on the science informing the loss and damage discourse and shed light on what it means for vulnerable populations and frontline communities exposed to the worsening climate impacts, and the growing moral imperative to address what is at stake – which for many signals a kind of existential crisis.
