联合国六机构在COP31启动灾害风险融资平台:目标2030年前筹得逾30亿美元保护7500万人

联合国11月12日在土耳其安塔利亚举行的COP31上启动「灾害风险融资平台」,目标是到2030年确保获得逾30亿美元风险融资,保护7500万人及其生计免受气候冲击与自然灾害影响。
该平台由六家联合国机构共同发起:联合国粮食及农业组织、国际移民组织、联合国人道主义事务协调厅、联合国儿童基金会、联合国难民署和世界粮食计划署。平台旨在让灾害应对资金更可预测,增加重大危机中早期行动的可用资金,并结合私营部门支持,提高每一美元的影响。
联合国新闻报道称,该倡议已取得首批成果:世界粮食计划署今年已帮助安排近2.11亿美元预先安排融资,可保护50多个国家的至多960万人。报道同时指出,预先安排融资目前占全球人道主义资金的比例不到2%。
平台启动地安塔利亚是COP31会址。本届大会11月9日开幕,气候融资与落实是核心议题。

Six UN agencies launch Disaster Risk Financing Platform at COP31, targeting over $3 billion to protect 75 million people by 2030
The United Nations launched the Disaster Risk Financing (DRF) Platform at COP31 in Antalya, Türkiye, on November 12, aiming to secure access to more than US$3 billion in risk financing to protect 75 million people and their livelihoods from climate shocks and natural hazards by 2030.
The platform is a joint initiative of six UN agencies: the Food and Agriculture Organization, the International Organization for Migration, the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, the UN Children's Fund (UNICEF), the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) and the World Food Programme. It aims to make disaster response funding more predictable, increase funding available for early action during major crises, and maximise the impact of every dollar by combining resources with private sector support.
UN News reported the initiative has already delivered its first results, with the World Food Programme helping secure nearly $211 million in pre-arranged finance this year to protect up to 9.6 million people in more than 50 countries. Pre-arranged financing currently accounts for less than 2 per cent of global humanitarian funding.
COP31 opened in Antalya on November 9, with climate finance and implementation as central themes of this year's talks.
