Namibia says it needs roughly US$15 billion to meet its climate goals, while Indonesia warns that today’s disasters are “not only natural” but increasingly driven by human actions. 

Argentina argued that the most effective response is to share resources where and when they are needed, calling for practical, bureaucracy-free coordination among countries. 

Egypt, on the other hand, urged the G20 to take a leading role by expanding support and lending capacity to ensure developing nations can access concessional finance.

These were among the key proposals dominating the plenary session on “A Resilient World”, which focused on global strategies for disaster-risk reduction.
