Come find out about how the Bank¡¯s flagship diagnostic ¨C the Country Climate and Development Reports ¨C are connecting climate and development priorities in over 40 countries.

Recently completed CCDRs in Brazil, Colombia, the Dominican Republic, and Honduras highlight the diversity of the opportunities and challenges faced by countries in the region in transitioning to a low-carbon resilient development path. Although highly diverse, these four reports provide common messages about the feasibility of pursuing development and climate action simultaneously, the critical role of natural capital, and opportunities for innovation to finance the transition.
