Philippines' Potential Gains from COP30's Forest Financing Mechanism
The Philippines is expected to include forestry sector targets in its updated nationally determined contributions (NDCs) at the upcoming COP30 in Brazil.
The country aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 75% under the Paris Agreement from 2020 to 2030, with forestry and land use contributing to this goal.
Tropical Forest Forever Facility (TFFF)
COP30 host Brazil is set to launch the TFFF, a $125 billion blended-finance mechanism that combines public, philanthropic, and private capital to pay forest countries for maintaining standing tropical forests.
- The TFFF could potentially benefit the Philippines, a Southeast Asian country hit by deforestation.
- The mechanism may provide financial incentives for the country to conserve its forests and reduce emissions.
The Philippines' inclusion of forestry sector targets in its updated NDCs and the launch of the TFFF at COP30 may offer new opportunities for the country to address deforestation and climate change.
