Introduction:

Climate change and green finance represent interconnected frameworks that shape sustainable development strategies within global economic and environmental systems. These domains align environmental risk structures, financial mechanisms, and policy architectures to support resilience, low carbon transitions, and long term development stability. This training program presents climate change frameworks, green finance models, governance systems, and investment structures that define international development environments. It provides an institutional perspective on how financial systems, policy frameworks, and environmental strategies integrate to support sustainable development objectives.
