The Bridgetown 2.0 Initiative is a vital contribution in the short term to expand lending capabilities while the Accra-Marrakech Agenda (A2M) represents medium to long-term reform. The A2M also provides immediate application including improvement to the Common Framework which enables debt relief for vulnerable countries and reduces cost of capital. The A2M calls for deep reforms of the international and development finance system, more precision around carbon financing, and the establishment of anticipatory finance for inevitable climate shocks and their spillover effects.\nObjectives \n\nUnpack and tackle priority areas of the A2M Agenda with key actions from the Bridgetown Initiative 2.0;\nEnsure that expectations from the New Global Financing Pact deliver for the climate vulnerable; and\nStart coalition building with V20, G7, G20 government, multilateral financial institutions, and private sector and development partners, in the lead up to the Africa Climate Action Summit in Nairobi in September 2023 to the Annual Meetings of the World Bank/IMF in Marrakech in October 2023 with a view to support COP28 outcomes in Dubai in December 2023.\n\n\n\nOpening Session\n\nH.E.
