1/4. “When we talk about #Equity, developing countries will also practise #Equity. Trust them.” @harjeet11 of @CANIntl explains why developing countries must be able to decide who can access support from the #LossAndDamage Fund at the #BonnClimateConference (#SB58). 🧵

2/4. “All developing countries should be eligible [to access the #LossAndDamage Fund] and it is important to keep that language for unity. We know that it is LDC’s, SIDs & Africa that are going to be prioritised. Rich countries should trust developing countries to sort that out.”

3/4. “When we look at Pakistan, when we look at Colombia, Philippines, they don't fall in those categories, so how are you going to support them? If developing countries can decide, there can be a response when needed."

4/4. At the #BonnClimateConference side event "Ensuring the #LossAndDamage Fund delivers for climate-impacted communities" with @1TeresaAnderson of @ActionAid, @harjeet11 of @CANIntl, @Mariana_Paoli of @christian_aid, @GunnelANycander of @Act_Svk.
