Questions

How can climate finance be used to…

- (1) shift traditional to low-carbon transport financing and

- (2) mobilize additional financing (including from the private sector) for sustainable, low-carbon transport

How to structure climate funds (such as the Green Climate Fund) to make them work for sustainable transport
