The webinar on Climate financial discussed the sources of climate funding in Brazil, addressing the international cooperation initiatives related to the climate agenda, the commitments assumed by Brazil resulting from mitigation and adaptation public policies, and the funding situation of these climate policies and projects in the country. In addition, the experiences and opportunities for action of Superior inspection Institutions (SAIs) on this subject, by means of audits and external control actions, have been debated.
The event was promoted by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and had the participation of a representative from the U.S. GAO (the United States’ SAI). This webinar is supported by regional project “Strengthening External Control in the Environmental Field”, jointly implemented by the Federal Court of Accounts (TCU-Brazil) and the Latin American and Caribbean Organization of Superior inspection Institutions (OLACEFS), in partnership with the German Cooperation by means of Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH. The event was held in Portuguese, with simultaneous translation to Spanish and English.
