Message From The Presidencies Of The Sixth And Seventh Sessions Of The Conference Of The Parties Serving As The Meeting Of The Parties To The Paris Agreement On The “Baku To Belém Roadmap To 1.3t”

Dear colleagues, 

At its sixth session, the Conference of the Parties serving as the meeting of the Parties to the Paris Agreement called “on all actors to work together to enable the scaling up of financing to developing country Parties for climate action from all public and private sources to at least USD 1.3 trillion per year by 2035.” 

In this context, Parties decided to launch, under the guidance of the Presidencies of the sixth and seventh sessions of the CMA, in consultation with Parties, the ‘Baku to Belém Roadmap to 1.3T’ (henceforth Roadmap), aiming at scaling up climate finance to developing country Parties to support 

low greenhouse gas emissions and climate-resilient development pathways and implement the nationally determined contributions and national adaptation plans including through grants, concessional and non- debt creating instruments, and measures to create fiscal space, taking into account relevant multilateral initiatives as appropriate; also requests the Presidencies to produce a report summarizing the work as it concludes the work by CMA 7. 

As CMA 6 and CMA 7 Presidencies, we are honoured to have been entrusted to guide the development of the Roadmap, undertaken in an inclusive, participatory, and transparent manner. A total of 116 submissions1 have been received from Party and non-Party stakeholders based on the initial invitation issued in February. Following open consultation events held with Parties and non-Party stakeholders in Bonn during the 62nd Subsidiary Body sessions, we have updated the work plan2 to reflect further outreach and engagement activities. 

As we prepare the report on the Roadmap, we would like to invite Parties, constituted bodies, operating entities of the Financial Mechanism, climate finance institutions, observers and observer organizations, and other stakeholders, particularly from the private sector, to submit their views on the following questions via e-mail to climatefinance@unfccc.int by 10 September 2025

 

  1. What are priority short-term (by the end of 2028) and medium-to-long-term (beyond 2028) actions necessary to enable the scaling up of financing for climate action to developing countries? Based on experience to date and evidence, what can those actions contribute to in terms of progress in enabling the scaling up of financing? 
  1. What strategies can be implemented to enhance and scale up public and private financing mechanisms for climate adaptation, especially in vulnerable regions? 
  1. What other experiences, proposals or approaches could help inform and accelerate efforts to mobilize USD 1.3 trillion in financing, including through grants, non-debt creating instruments, new sources of finance, and strategies to create fiscal space? 

d.      What key actors and existing multilateral initiatives should be considered or involved, as appropriate, to support the delivery of the USD 1.3 trillion target?

In light of the extensive information already shared and discussed during the 62nd Subsidiary Body sessions, we kindly encourage concise submissions that build upon previous inputs.

Finally, we remain available for inquiries and informal exchange with any Party or regional groups of Parties and can be reached through climatefinance@unfccc.int.

 

Yours sincerely,
