Small Island Developing States - Access to Climate Finance
About the Animation
Sketch was commissioned by the US think tank Carnegie Endowment for International Peace to produce an animation about access to climate finance for the Small Island Developing States (SIDS). We worked with the academic Darshana M. Baruah, whose primary research focuses on maritime security in the Indo-Pacific and the role of islands in shaping great power competition. At present, the Small Island Developing States have limited access to climate finance. Despite being hit hard by climate change while only contributing to 1% of global carbon dioxide emissions, these states only had access to $1.5 billion out of $100 billion in climate finance pledged to developing countries in 2019. There’s a need to ensure that small states can access funds, particularly as many of them are first in line to experience the devastating impact of the climate emergency.
Please get in touch at projects@sketchfilms.co.uk to discuss any project you have in mind. We have produced animations and infographics on a wide range of subjects from the impact of artificial intelligence and Deep Fakes to vaccine diplomacy during the Covid pandemic.
