Interrogating Climate Adaptation Financing in Zimbabwe: Proposed Direction

Innocent Chirisa et al.

Summary: Developing countries such as Zimbabwe are highly vulnerable to climate-induced disasters and lack the financial means to cope with climate hazards. This study highlights the importance of establishing strong financial foundations for sustainable climate adaptation, utilizing global climate financing, and fostering partnerships between various stakeholders for success. While progress has been made with the establishment of local financing institutions and a climate change bill, barriers still remain in scaling up adaptation practices and technologies due to limited finances.
