 Organizations demand #FixTheFinance for climate justice during four days of action
==========

Civil society organizations are mobilizing for a four-day global action from April 16 to 19 to demand #FixTheFinance for climate justice. The action aims to call upon governments, banks, and financial institutions to address the urgent need for fixing the world's financial flows to combat climate change. The mobilizations coincide with the IMF/World Bank spring meetings, G20 finance ministers' meeting, and upcoming bank AGMs. The organizations participating in the mobilizations include ActionAid, Global Platforms, Asian Peoples' Movement on Debt and Development (APMDD), Big Shift Global, Christian Aid, Climate Action Network, Fridays for Future, Oxfam, Power Shift Africa, Urgewald, and 350.org. They are calling for transparency, an end to financing destructive industries, climate finance, debt cancellation, tax justice, and a shift in finance flows to support community-led solutions and just transitions. The mobilizations will include stunts, workshops, climate strikes, webinars, and digital actions in various countries. The goal is to push for climate action ahead of UN climate negotiations and to achieve a critical new climate finance goal at COP29 in November.
