Africa-Press – Gambia. “Climate change and the resulting displacements of persons also continue to have adverse effects on domestic capacities and ecosystems to improve the humanitarian situation,” the President said while addressing fellow leaders at the recent AU summit in Malabo, Equatorial Guinea.

The President added that the situation highlights “the importance of financing climate change mitigation efforts.” “We must continue to consider sustainable financing for climate change mitigation and adaptation. Accordingly, my Government has embarked on a process of formulating a green-focused development plan and long-term vision.”

“As we work towards mitigating our humanitarian challenges, it is necessary to close the gap between humanitarian needs, intervention programmes, and funding.”

“Solutions need to be outlined and implemented to acquire adequate funding for humanitarian action through closer partnerships among national, regional, continental, and global stakeholders,” he concluded.
