| Resumen: |
This scoping review investigates the potential for channelling innovative climate finance into
social protection systems with a specific focus on rural populations. Given the escalating global
impacts of the triple planetary crisis (UNFCCC, 2022) – climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution –
social protection is increasingly recognised as a vital policy tool for advancing climate adaptation and
mitigation, supporting the Just Transition, and responding to losses and damages.
This scoping review presents four promising climate finance instruments – sustainable bonds,
debt swaps, carbon and biodiversity credits, impact bonds – that could be used to mobilise new
resources for government-led social protection. |
