Gonzalo Muñoz

UN High-Level Climate Action Champion

In his role of UN High-Level Climate Action Champion, Gonzalo Muñoz helps to mobilize the climate action of all interested entities - cities, companies, investors and civil society - to facilitate the integration of these parties into the Climate Action Agenda. In this video, he introduces how the Marrakech Partnership for Global Climate Action (MPGCA), through the contribution of FMDV- Global Fund for Cities Development, amongst other partners, develops pathways to accelerate climate action, particularly through specific solutions such as the Subnational Development Banks (SDBs) that can catalyze and channel climate finance to local projects and structure markets for local governments.

This video was his introductory remarks for the FMDV’s High-Level virtual side event on "Unlocking finance for urban and territorial climate resilience in Africa", during the United Nations Africa Climate Week.
