The training on Climate finances took place on 21st of June for enhancing the national capacities for climate changes.

The aim of this training is to ensure and provide information to the representatives of the business sector on what does the concept of climate finances represent and how to engage in fundraising for the ambitious climate actions that were adopted recently by the Government of Republic of North Macedonia.
