How do different conceptions and practices around Climate Finance impact outcomes for AFOLU sector climate transitions in Developing Nations?

本研究将评估国际气候融资中的不同概念和做法如何影响发展中国家各部门的结果。为了实现这一目标，研究将解决以下研究问题：气候融资空间内不同利益相关者和行为者如何概念化气候融资的目的？随着时间的推移，这些概念化是如何变化的？气候融资的不同概念和方法对土地利用部门的气候融资水平有什么影响？不同的气候融资概念和工具如何改变土地利用项目的做法和方法？这些方法如何改变受援国气候项目的影响和结果？在回答这些问题时，本研究旨在通过强调不同概念和实践对气候融资如何有效实现不同政策目标的影响来改善气候融资流的治理。通过这一点，该项目将提供一个证据基础，以支持土地使用气候战略的设计以及公平和有效的气候资金流动。这项工作意义重大，因为除了在文献中扩大对气候融资影响的考虑之外，它还将支持制定有效的政策，以支持该区域的可持续发展，并了解如何最好地设计气候融资倡议，以支持可持续的土地使用做法以及土地使用部门的消费和生产。除此之外，通过考虑不同的利益相关者如何看待气候融资沿着治理格局的作用，这项研究旨在正式分析气候融资公认的多层次和跨标量性质（Colenbrander等人，2018）。通过整合这种多层次的方法，这项工作力求通过改进从整体意义上考虑气候融资，并考虑气候融资进程中不同代理人和做法的作用和影响，为气候融资研究领域做出方法上的贡献。

This study will assess how different conceptions and practices within international climate finance influence outcomes within sectors in developing nations. To achieve this, the research will address the following research questions: How is the purpose of climate finance conceptualised by different stakeholders and actors within the climate finance space? How have these conceptualisations changed over time? What influence have different conceptualisations and approaches to climate finance had on levels of climate finance to land-use sectors? How do different climate finance conceptualisations and instruments change practices and approaches to land-use projects? How do these approaches change impacts and outcomes of climate projects within recipient nations? In answering these questions, this research seeks to improve governance of climate finance flows by highlighting the impacts of different conceptualisations and practices on how effectively climate finance achieves different policy objectives. Through this, the project will provide an evidence base to support design of land-use climate strategy and equitable and effective climate finance flows. This work is significant as, in addition to expanding on the consideration of climate finance impacts in the literature, it will also support the creation of effective policy-making to support sustainable development within the region, as well as understanding how climate finance initiatives can be best designed in order to support sustainable land-use practices and consumption and production within land-use sectors. In addition to this, by considering how different stakeholders perceive the role of climate finance along the governance landscape, this research seeks to formalise analysis of the acknowledged multi-level and cross-scalar nature of climate finance (Colenbrander et al, 2018). By integrating this multi-level approach, this work seeks to make a methodological contribution to the field of climate finance research by improving the consideration of climate finance in a holistic sense, and consideration of the role and impacts of different agents and practices in climate finance processes.
