The loss and damage fund is a crucial step in moving forward with the damages caused by climate change. Further, in the global justice movement, the fund is a crucial step, mentioned by a COP27 negotiator in the Island State of Palau.Surprisingly, the loss and damage fund was actually proposed three decades ago by the Alliance of Small Island States (AOSIS). The loss and damage fund is also included in the Paris Agreement but was worded in a way to avoid compensation and liability, which is what has been stated by the US when discussed. There are still lots of questions around the loss and damage fund such as how is the fund going to be managed, who is going to add to the fund and many more questions that still need to be clarified and answered. The article mentions that these questions will only be answered in COP28, “These questions will be addressed by a 24-member Transitional Committee, tasked to come up with a proposal by COP28 in December, 2023.” It is expected that the fund will be operational in COP28 but promises will not be fulfilled.
