Aruba’s Minister Plenipotentiary Mildred Schwengle spoke about climate finance and expectations for climate investment at the closing event of the Green Overseas programme in Paris this week, according to a November 5 report by 24ora.
Invitation to programme closing event
The outlet says Schwengle participated at the invitation of the Green Overseas programme. Its account identifies climate financing and investment expectations as the subjects of her address, without reporting a new funding award or investment agreement for Aruba.
Programme covers overseas territories
24ora describes Green Overseas as a six-year initiative running from 2020 to 2026 and directed at British and European overseas territories. It says the forum seeks workable approaches to the climate transition, climate resilience and financing across 25 territories.
The report also notes that solutions discussed through the programme could be used in other regions. It does not give the precise date of Schwengle’s speech or identify a specific financial commitment resulting from the Paris event.
