The Global Shield against Climate Risks (GS) was launched by the G7 under Germany’s presidency in 2022 in close partnership with the Vulnerable Twenty Group of finance ministers (V20). Through this collaborative partnership, the V20 and the G7 want to scale up further action and support to address the urgent needs of vulnerable people and countries facing increasing risks of losses and damages from climate change. The GS aims to provide more and better financial protection, enabling quick and reliable funding before or just after disasters happen, and protect governments, communities, businesses, and households against the impacts of disasters.
