Sustainable, Green and Climate Finance

This course is for all the students and workers in the world wherever you study and reside who are interested in understanding how finance is central to funding climate change projects.  Without finance nothing will happen therefore we must all understand the finance available and how it will help us decarbonise the planet.  When you complete this course you will have the tools and knowledge to better engage with your bankers or finance colleagues to fund your projects and be able to justify why you need the funding more than your other colleagues that are competing with you for the same funds.  You will learn about the definitions of green and sustainable and climate finance.  You will grasp the differences between the European Taxonomy and Chinese Green Bond Catalogue. You will also be able to explain the difference principles in place.  The last part of the course will explain the gap in funding between current and future requirements.  Once you have completed this course you will have sufficient knowledge of sustainable, green and climate finance to actively participate in your own journey on this important topic.  The course finishes with some recent examples of bonds used to fund green projects.  Although all sustainable finance has been affected by the recent turbulence in financial markets we must not let this deter us.  More funding is required to combat climate change and we all have a responsibility to learn the climate finance fundamentals.

I hope you enjoy this training course and please feel free to send me any feedback for future iterations of this course.

Kind Regards

NB This training course is an extract from the longer course“Climate Change for Professionals”which is also available for purchase on Udemy.

After we received feedback from the students asking to split that course into shorter and more manageable courses, we are happy to offer you a choice: you can either get the full course, or pick a shorter course with the topic that is more relevant to your learning objectives.
