Documents to comment on and calls for papers
Among other areas, modern democracies require free, prior, informed consent and regular stakeholder engagement to work. The same applies to the world of sustainable finance. However, even with the best of intentions, it’s not always easy to keep up with opportunities to engage with sustainable finance policies.
​
Which is why we have decided to start to alert you to climate-related financing and financial sector policies - including standard processes - that are open for public comment.
Check them out here as they become available.

​Led by Minister Fernando Haddad at the invitation of the COP30 President, the COP30 Circle of Finance Ministers will convene finance ministers from selected countries to engage in a structured dialogue on strategies to scale up climate finance for developing nations. The initiative will serve as a key contribution to the Baku to Belém Roadmap to USD 1.3 trillion. The COP30 Circle of Finance Ministers will operate as a platform for regular consultations throughout 2025, culminating in the preparation of a Report to the COP30 Presidency. This Report will serve as an input to the final Baku to Belém Roadmap, which will be jointly submitted by COP29 and COP30 Presidencies at COP30 in Belém.
The agenda of the COP30 Circle of Finance Ministers is structured around five strategic priorities:
1. Reforming Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs);
2. Expanding concessional finance and climate funds;
3. Creating country platforms and boosting domestic capacity to attract sustainable investments;
4. Developing innovative financial instruments for private capital mobilization;
5. Strengthening regulatory frameworks for climate finance.
Ensuring the effective development of the COP30 Circle of Finance Ministers requires a structured and inclusive approach. To achieve this, we invite civil society organizations and representatives to share insights through this questionnaire to ensure that the COP30 Circle of Finance Ministers reflects diverse perspectives and addresses the needs of all stakeholders.
Please register your suggestions in Portuguese or English.
