A transitional committee is due to work out how the fund would operate, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.climatechangenews.com\/2022\/11\/29\/who-should-pay-for-loss-and-damage-spoiler-not-china\/\">who will pay<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.climatechangenews.com\/2022\/12\/08\/which-countries-are-particularly-vulnerable-to-climate-change\/\">who will benefit<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.climatechangenews.com\/2022\/12\/13\/vulnerable-communities-must-call-the-shots-on-loss-and-damage-fund\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">how it will be governed<\/a> and make recommendations ahead of the next round of UN climate talks in the UAE.<\/p>\n<p>The 24-people committee is due to hold <a href=\"https:\/\/unfccc.int\/sites\/default\/files\/resource\/notification_to_un_igos_tc1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">its first meeting<\/a> in Luxor, Egypt, on the 27-29 March despite the Asia Pacific group&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.climatechangenews.com\/2023\/02\/28\/un-sets-date-for-loss-and-damage-talks-risking-asian-no-show\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">failure to nominate their two representatives<\/a>. Several sources told Climate Home News this was because of several countries competing for the positions.<\/p>\n<p>Mohamed Nasr, Egypt&#8217;s lead climate negotiator and one of the committee members, said: &#8220;This issue is of extreme importance to everybody, so everybody wants to be sitting at the table.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Two sources told Climate Home that nominations from the group are expected soon.<\/p>\n<h3>Locally-led solutions<\/h3>\n<p>The alliance will help vulnerable countries prepare for the handling of loss and damage funds, said Saleemul Huq, director of the ICCAD.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Money is not going to come for a while so part of the exercise is to know how to use it when it comes,&#8221; Huq told Climate Home. &#8220;So this is a knowledge-first approach.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Huq said the alliance will support the development of locally-led solutions, co-created with communities, which are cost-effective.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s about getting a better handle on what is needed to respond to unavoidable climate impacts so countries are ready to address them when they come. People can\u2019t afford to wait until the world wakes up and starts filling the coffers of the loss and damage fund,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Pooling resources\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>To make the most of the patchwork of existing but limited funds, the alliance urged countries to create a national facility that pools funding from the private sector, development aid, philanthropies, insurance, debt relief mechanisms, national budgets and new funding opportunities under the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.climatechangenews.com\/2022\/07\/18\/germany-promotes-insurance-based-global-shield-for-climate-victims\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">G7-backed Global Shield<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>These national entities can act as a ready vehicles to disburse any future loss and damage cash in a cost-effective, accountable and transparent way, researchers say.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><label for=\"mce-EMAIL\">Want climate news in your inbox?
