For #justtransition and #climatejustice, we need non-debt creating funding that frontline communities and workers receive directly and use to meet their needs and aspirations for move livable, just environments. To advance self-determination, funding will look different across different groups.

$1.2 TRILLION for military budget, only $348M for Loss and Damage? This is the theft of climate justice. We fought for the FRLD. We won’t let it be an empty promise. Global North #PayUp and #FillTheFund now!

225+ Organizations demand COP30 center people, not polluters.

#COP30 is not a place for #BigPolluters to make business deals!
