Prime Minister of Norway, Jens Stoltenberg, has been appointed the co-chair of the United Nations-appointed high-level advisory group on climate change financing with immediate effect.
He replaces the former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom (UK) Gordon Brown. The other co-chair is Prime Minister Meles Zenawi of Ethiopia.
UK Prime Minister, David Cameron has expressed his country’s continued support for the work of the advisory group, while nominating Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change, Chris Huhne, as a member of the advisory group.
The Advisory Group, launched last February, is tasked with drafting practical proposals to boost both short and long-term financing for climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies in developing countries.
Its membership includes President Bharrat Jagdeo of Guyana, as well as Senior Ministers and officials from central banks and other experts on finance and development.
The group is expected to issue its recommendations before the next conference of parties to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), to be held in Mexico later this year.
