In a bid to bolster its efforts against the pressing issue of climate change, Nepal has made a pivotal decision to accept a substantial €13 million grant from Finland. The announcement came following a cabinet meeting held earlier today, where government officials unanimously agreed to welcome the much-needed financial aid.

The grant, a testament to international cooperation, is earmarked for implementing a range of programs specifically designed to mitigate the adverse effects of climate change. Nepal, a country vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, views this funding as a significant step towards building resilience and sustainability in the face of environmental challenges.

Rekha Sharma, the government’s spokesperson and Minister for Communication and Information Technology, highlighted the importance of the grant in supporting various climate change mitigation initiatives across the nation. The infusion of funds is expected to catalyze efforts aimed at safeguarding Nepal’s natural resources and promoting sustainable development practices.
