The campaign will focus on raising awareness and drive action on climate finance. This campaign builds upon the momentum of the Oxfam’s global “Make Rich Polluters Pay” campaign, demanding that rich countries, corporations and individuals take responsibility for the climate crisis they have disproportionately caused.

For the year 2024, the campaign will focus on exposing the massive gap between the available climate finance and the needs of the people around Asia suffering due to the impacts of climate change, and demand for adequate, equitable and just climate finance.
