At their High-Level Meeting (HLM) in 2020, members of the OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC) set out a number of commitments and aspirations to align development co-operation with the objectives of international agreements to fight climate change and protect the environment. One year later, this report documents the individual and collective steps taken to give effect to the four voluntary commitments set out in the HLM Communiqué. It provides information on provisions and actions taken by DAC members to systematically integrate international environment and climate goals into development co-operation, to pursue more coordinated approaches, to support the transition of developing countries towards sustainable development pathways, and to better address the particular needs of Small Island Developing States.

A specific target has been set at the level of funding for Objective B of the Swiss International Co‑operation Strategy 2021-2024. Switzerland’s international co-operation funding in this field is set to increase gradually from CHF 300 million per year in 2017-20 to CHF 400 million per year by the end of 2024. This will be equivalent to around 15% of the total international co-operation resources.
