An honour to meet Finance Secretary Frederick D. Go to expand DOF-UNDP cooperation. We are boosting PH climate finance, private capital flows, & blended finance for bankable local investmen projects. Grateful to 🇦🇺 🇨🇦 🇬🇧 for supporting our climate finance work in the Philippines

Delighted to join Dpt Budget Sec. de Leon & 🇪🇺 Ambassador Santoro at ASEAN event on public procurement.
Better procurement strengthens governance, frees fiscal space & opens markets to small firms. In 🇵🇭, EU-PH project implemented by #UNDP helps turn reform into practice

Today: first high-level meeting of 🇵🇭's Development Partners Coordination Group on Climate-related Loss and Damage, led by DENR & CCC with UNDP as co-chair. As host of the FRLD Board, 🇵🇭 is active globally & moving to national action. Thank you 🇬🇧 for the support #LossAndDamage
