Welcomes #LossAndDamage fund, urges sufficient resources for it.
Creating a standalone facility for addressing #LossAndDamage is vital for Sudan, and other #LDCs, explains Somaya Abdoun.
It will help them recover from current extremes like flooding, ease suffering and give their climate resilience plans stronger foundations.
@LDCChairUNFCCC
Small island states are looking not just to survive, but for a chance to thrive.
They see #LossAndDamage response fund, within the UNFCCC, as the way to help them get back on their feet from climate disasters and build #resilience.
@MichaiRobertson of @AOSISChair explains:
With Ministerial-led discussions underway & push from @COP27P Presidency to resolve difficult issues tonight, Small Island Developing States are keeping their eyes on the #COP27 outcome their people want:
A #LossAndDamageFinance facility established in the #UNFCCC.
@AOSISChair
Ambassador Dr Satyendra Prasad, Fiji calls for #COP27 negotiators to inject urgency in talks & reflect #ClimateEmergency in outside world.
Seeking delivery on finance, he says that every day of delayed #Adaptation means greater cost, more #LossAndDamage
@sprasadfj @FijiMissionUN
Rising seas are harming freshwater supplies, as well as gardens, homes in Fiji 🇫🇯 Amb Prasad @sprasadfj
Such #LossAndDamage is Fiji's current reality and is "not theoretical".
It is not an option for the 48 exposed communities to stay where they are.
@AOSISChair @FijiMissionUN
Ambassador Dr Satyendra Prasad @FijiMissionUN @sprasadfj 🧵
Fiji calls for international #LossAndDamage Finance Facility #COP27
➡️Fiji already has 48 communities whose lands are inundated by sea level rise, tidal surge
➡️Fiji domestic resources can only cover four
@AOSISChair
Bubu Pateh Jallow of #TheGambia, LDC Group #UNFCCC negotiator, shares concerns that Least Developed countries need:
👉more support to implement National Adaptation Plans
👉greater access to the Green Climate Fund
@LDCChairUNFCCC @iied @bubupateh @odiclimate
@theGCF #COP27
Lack of progress at #COP27 has prompted @AOSISChair to issue this very urgent statement:
"The tide has turned on loss & damage. Why do you continue to turn a deaf ear to the cries of our people? [and]...question very credibility of this process?

As #COP27 delegates negotiate funding for vulnerable countries to rebuild their societies resiliently following climate-related loss and damage, @AOSISAOSISChair encounters unhelpful resistance. As @MichaiRobertson explains. See more: casaclimate.org/news/small-i…
No time to lose: with widespread suffering in Malawi and other Least Developed Countries as a result of climate-related #LossAndDamage, LDCs need increased finance, support now from international community.
Yamikani Idriss @LDCChairUNFCCC makes the case:
@iied @binyamgebreyes
Let's make real progress, halt back-tracking on addressing climate-related #LossAndDamage says @AOSISChair policy advisor @MichaiRobertson from middle of #COP27 talks.

Thibyan Ibrahim @AOSISChair:
At current 1.1C global warming, limits of adaptation are being breached for many Small Island Developing States 🌩️🌏
That's why AOSIS urgently wants to see substantive progress at #COP27, including improved Glasgow Sharm El-Sheikh Work Program👇
Thibyan Ibrahim 🇲🇻, Policy Advisor @AOSISChair:
"We would have expected to see more convergence" on #AdaptationAction so far at #COP27; AOSIS is looking forward to a strong adaptation outcome of COP as it's in Parties' mutual interests, he says.
@COP27P #UNFCCC #ClimateAmbition
As ministerial segment of #COP27 gets underway, @AOSISChair advisor Angelique Pouponneau stresses that small island states need substantive outcome this week, including more purposeful pathway for Glasgow-Sharm El Sheikh Work Programme on Global Goal on #Adaptation
