🚀 Launching the 2026 IMCA Annual Workshop in Helsinki! 🇫🇮 This week, we are pleased to welcome members and collaborators of the Investment Mobilisation Collaboration Alliance (IMCA) to Helsinki as we advance joint efforts to scale #ClimateFinance in emerging markets and developing economies. 👋 ✨ ...But what is IMCA? It’s an alliance that brings together governments, DFIs, philanthropies and investors to coordinate project pipelines and support innovative blended finance vehicles that mobilise private capital at scale. 💡 Over the next two days, the workshop will include strategic discussions on IMCA’s path toward 2030. Member organisations will share their priorities and concrete opportunities for collaboration within IMCA. In addition, we will discuss updates from the most recent joint call for proposals under the Adaptation Finance Window for Africa (AFWA), a key initiative aligned with NDF’s priorities in adaptation and Africa. Participants will also work in thematic breakout groups, tackling practical challenges to identify key insights and propose next steps. ✅ As a catalytic climate financier, we value these opportunities to exchange perspectives, align priorities and shape partnerships that can unlock capital where it is needed most. Looking forward to productive discussions and next steps here in Helsinki! Read more about IMCA: https://shorturl.at/aWnbW Learn more about AFWA: https://shorturl.at/tVhEq

The world needs progress and climate action with urgency. 🌍 Our Strategy 2030 strengthens our commitment to advancing Nordic climate leadership and accelerating solutions where the needs and opportunities are the greatest. We remain agile, risk-tolerant and innovation-driven, working with partners to support adaptation finance, nature-positive investments and building climate resilience. 🎧 Stay tuned, as we publish later this week a new episode of Nordic x Climate Talks, which dives into Strategy 2030 and why climate action is urgently needed now more than ever. #ClimateFinance #NordicClimateLeadership

🎉🙌 NDF has committed EUR 10 million to the Second Community Action for Landscape Management Program for Results (CALM II) project in #Ethiopia, supporting climate resilience in climate-sensitive highland areas where most livelihoods depend on rainfed agriculture. The project strengthens sustainable land management, forest restoration, and climate-smart agriculture, while laying the foundation for a carbon credit system to support long-term landscape restoration. CALM II also supports long-term sustainability for communities, especially women, who often face the harshest impacts of climate and economic shocks. 🌾💡 💬 “Our contribution is catalytic: we help co-create solutions with partners, so climate investments translate into tangible and equitable outcomes for communities, while ensuring strong social and environmental safeguards and gender integration,” says Morten Holm van Donk, Program Manager at NDF. ➡️ Read more about CALM II: https://shorturl.at/i1KEI #ClimateFinance #ClimateResilience #SustainableLandManagement Photo: World Bank/Andrea Borgarello
