Executive Officer Teddy Mpinganzima Mugabo has joined a bilateral meeting
between Rwanda’s Minister of Environment, Bernadette Arakwiye, and the World
Resources Institute’s Global Climate, Economics and Finance Director, Melanie Robinson,
to strengthen collaboration on climate finance and mobilise investment for
Rwanda’s green growth ambitions.
The engagement took place on
the sidelines of the 31st United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP31),
where discussions provided an opportunity to explore pathways for increasing
investment in Rwanda’s green development priorities.
According to Rwanda Green
Fund, the meeting focused on strengthening collaboration on climate finance and
identifying opportunities to mobilise investment in support of the country's
green growth ambitions.
The participation of Mugabo
reflects the Rwanda Green Fund’s engagement in efforts to advance climate
finance partnerships and attract investment towards the country’s environmental
and sustainable development objectives.
The meeting also brought
together key representatives of the Rwandan government and the World Resources
Institute, an international organisation working on environmental and
sustainable development issues.
