In the presence of the Minister of Gender Promotion, the Minister of the Environment, and UNDP’s Resident Representative, the community of Idjikoundzi, in Dimani launched the project “Strengthening the resilience of agricultural systems and intelligent value chains in the face of the climate”. This project aims to increase the climate resilience of the main agricultural value chains through innovation, diversification and capacity building.

This project, financially supported by the Global Environment Facility (WEF) and implemented with the financial and technical support of the UNDP, represents an important step in the adaptation of the Comorian agricultural sector to climate challenges. With a budget of 10 million dollars, it will be deployed throughout the national territory, with particular attention to the Rural Centers for Economic Development (CRDE) of Sidjou, Cembenoi and Diboini (Ngazidja), Mimbani and Mledjele (Mwali), as well as Mramani, Bambao Mtsanga and Pomoni (Ndzouani).

UNDP’s Resident Representative stressed the urgency of such initiatives in the face of a global context of growing climate crises. He also highlighted the centrality of agriculture in the Comorian economy and the importance of supporting rural communities, particularly vulnerable, by introducing innovative and sustainable agricultural practices.

Government consulting on sustainable investment labelling

Government consulting on sustainable investment labelling

The Australian Government is starting consultation on sustainable investment product labelling, which is designed to give investors more confidence to put more capital to work in sustainable products.

The federal government said the release of this paper is a key step in implementing its Sustainable Finance Roadmap — designed to help mobilise the capital required for Australia to become a renewable energy superpower, modernising the financial markets and maximising the economic opportunities from net zero.

This consultation paper seeks views from investors, companies and the broader community on a framework for sustainable investment product labels.

These labels are designed to help investors and consumers identify, compare and make informed decisions about sustainable investment products to understand what ‘sustainable’, ‘green’ or similar words mean when they’re applied to financial products.

The government said a more robust and clear product-labelling framework will help investors and consumers invest in sustainable products with confidence and help tackle greenwashing.

This phase of consultation will run from 18 July to 29 August and help the government refine its design principles for the framework.

The consultation paper is available on the Treasury consultation hub.
