The National Climate Finance Strategy for 2025-2030 was launched yesterday by the Finance Ministry and United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) through the Climate Finance Network project, which was funded bythe UK government.

The strategy hopes to provide a roadmap that would effectively leverage and channel climate investments, with the aim of supporting Sri Lanka's transition to a carbon net zero pathway.

“The strategy will enable Sri Lanka to access international climate funding.
