The Voluntary Carbon Markets Integrity Initiative (VCMI) and the Climate Vulnerable Forum (CVF-V20) announced an expanded partnership for the Carbon Finance Programme, aiming to help climate-vulnerable nations access high-integrity carbon markets. Launched in June 2024, the programme supports CVF-V20 members in leveraging carbon markets to finance their Climate Prosperity Plans. This collaboration seeks to unlock an additional US$20 billion annually for V20 countries by enabling them to host high-integrity carbon projects. The programme, which has already provided guidance in Benin and Kenya, will now scale to reach more countries and broaden technical support through 2028. The announcement was made during the 2025 Annual Meetings of the World Bank Group and the International Monetary Fund.
