The Green Climate Fund has already had “working-level communication” with President Joe Biden’s administration, amid hopes for new financial commitments after the previous U.S. administration withdrew funding, Executive Director Yannick Glemarec told Devex.
“We understand that we should be able to get — very soon — a communication at the political and policy levels,” Glemarec said, adding that U.S. funding for GCF could prove “dramatic” for the outcomes of the 26th United Nations Climate Change Conference, or COP 26, later this year.
