Fragmented climate finance coordination reinforces political fault lines, hindering progress.
The article looks at how different organizations work together to manage money for climate projects in developing countries. They studied two big funds, one linked to the World Bank and the other to the United Nations. The researchers found that these funds tried to coordinate their efforts, but they focused more on technical details than on the political differences between them. This made it hard for them to work with groups that had different ideas, so their coordination didn't work well. This shows that just trying to organize things better doesn't always solve the bigger problems.
