Africa’s 54 countries want COP30’s adaptation-finance tripling made operational.

Article 9.1 of the Paris Agreement obliges developed countries to pay, while 9.2 only invites other countries able to.

Delegates adopt the COP31 agenda on 9 November, and the Green Climate Fund replenishment follows next year.
