In this episode of the TIPS Podcast, we speak with Avantika Goswami, Programme Manager for Climate Change at the Centre for Science and Environment in India, about the evolving landscape of climate finance and development in the Global South.
Drawing on her work and recent report Beyond Climate Finance, Goswami argues that increasing financial flows alone is not sufficient. Instead, she calls for deeper systemic reforms to global financial and trade systems, alongside stronger South–South cooperation, to enable equitable and effective climate action.
The conversation explores the role of developing countries in shaping a new climate and development agenda, the challenges of accessing finance and technology, and the importance of solidarity and civil society in advancing a shared Global South vision for green industrialisation and sustainable growth.
