The EIB Climate Survey: Africa and the Middle East
Year: 2023
Content-Type: Report
Description: The survey results came at a critical moment for Africa, following COP 27, where the central issues were finding more resources to mitigate global warming and adapting to its effects. A decisive agreement was also made on a new “loss and damage” fund for vulnerable countries severely hurt by climate disasters. The European Investment Bank 2022 Climate Survey is the fifth edition of the survey. An annual project, we see it as an important way to hear from people around the world and understand how climate change is impacting their lives. This year’s survey tells us that many people in Africa and the Middle East are taking action themselves to adapt to climate change — an average of 57% overall but more than 70% in some countries. The message we hear is that people in these countries are ready to do more about climate change. Our message is that the European Investment Bank is here to help.
