Australia has rejoined one of the world's largest global climate funds to push for more finance for vulnerable Pacific neighbours.
Some $50 million has been pledged for the international Green Climate Fund (GCF), along with $100 million for a resilience facility established by Pacific Islands Forum leaders in 2017.
Climate and Energy Minister Chris Bowen said federal Labor has been restoring Australia's climate leadership since it was elected and looks forward to continuing to work closely with the region to call for stronger global action.
