摘要

气候变化对城市的影响尤为严重，而一些城市应对气候变化的财政能力有限。因此，有必要确保城市可支配的气候基金的使用方式能够最大限度地发挥其影响。然而，财务管理不善和腐败已导致气候基金的资金大量流失。虽然打击一般公共部门腐败的措施可用于改善气候融资管理，但气候融资市场也提出了一些独特的挑战。可以对传统的反腐败措施进行反思，以保持其打击气候融资腐败的有效性。在此背景下，文章探讨了城市如何利用国际和地区法律来改善气候资金的管理。文章确定了八项财务控制措施，并对其进行了批判性讨论，以说明这些措施在气候融资的具体情况下如何有效。文章还列举了一些城市实施这些财务控制的实例

Funding Climate Change Initiatives: Utilising the Law for Enhancing Financial Management in Cities

Climate change affects cities disproportionately, and some cities have limited fiscal capacity to address climate change. It is therefore necessary to ensure that the climate funds cities do have at their disposal are used in a way that maximises their impact. However, financial mismanagement and corruption have led to significant money losses in climate funds. Although measures against general public sector corruption can be used to improve climate finance management, the climate finance market poses some unique challenges. Traditional anti-corruption measures can be rethought to maintain their effectiveness against corruption in climate finance. Against this background, the article explores how international and regional law can be used by cities to improve the management of climate funds. Eight financial controls are identified and critically discussed to show how they can be effective in the specific case of climate finance. The article also shows some examples of where these financial controls have been implemented in cities

期刊介绍： PELJ/PER publishes contributions relevant to development in the South African constitutional state. This means that most contributions will concern some aspect of constitutionalism or legal development. The fact that the South African constitutional state is the focus, does not limit the content of PELJ/PER to the South African legal system, since development law and constitutionalism are excellent themes for comparative work. Contributions on any aspect or discipline of the law from any part of the world are thus welcomed.
