As such, efforts to improve information on financial flows for climate change generally take place within broader efforts to improve domestic budget and expenditure processes, and are connected to overarching development and other strategic priorities. A reporting framework under the UNFCCC that is disconnected from national efforts to improve this information for national purposes may be counterproductive. Once in place, international reporting of this information will need to account for the varying approaches to classifying climate-relevant activities that are used in different countries.
