The Global Environment Facility has joined the Leadership for Urban Climate Investment (LUCI), a framework aiming to raise ambition and fill funding gaps for cities’ climate action by 2025.

A paper published in Conservation Letters, based on a report of the Global Environment Facility’s COVID-19 Task Force, examines the One Health approach emphasizing the interdependence of the health of humans, domestic and wild animals, fungi, plants, microbes, and natural and built ecosystems. It finds that a One Health lens can help address pressing environmental challenges while supporting green, equitable, and inclusive development.
