Dear colleagues,
In 2022, the US Government launched PACC 2030 - the US-Caribbean Partnership to Address the Climate Crisis.
The initiative has four pillars: 1️⃣ Improving access to development finance, 2️⃣ Facilitating clean energy project development and investment, 3️⃣ Food security and enhancing local capacity for climate adaptation and resilience, and 4️⃣ Deepening collaboration with Caribbean partners.
My review of PACC 2030 for the Inter-American Dialogue finds gaps in NGO outreach, missed climate justice needs, and little to no local engagement.
Regards,
