This workshop, hosted by the Cities Climate Finance Leadership Alliance (CCFLA), will focus on scaling project preparation support for cities. It will bring together city networks, project preparation facilities (PPFs), financial institutions, and governments to advance a shared vision for strengthening the project preparation ecosystem and closing the urban climate finance gap. The workshop will also serve as a platform to shape the next phase of CCFLA’s work, particularly through the Leadership for Urban Climate Investment (LUCI) and PPF Connector programs, in alignment with this collective vision.
