Abstract
How much finance should be provided to support climate change
adaptation and by whom? How should it be allocated, and on what basis? Over
the years, various actors have expressed different normative expectations
on climate finance. Which of these expectations are being met and which are
not; why, and with what consequences? Have new norms and rules emerged,
which remain contested? This article takes stock of the first 25+ years of
adaptation finance under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate
Change (UNFCCC) and seeks to understand whether adaptation finance has
become more justly governed and delivered over the past quarter century. We
distinguish among three “eras” of adaptation finance: (1) the early years
under the UNFCCC (1992–2008); (2) the Copenhagen shift (2009–2015); and (3)
the post-Paris era (2016–2018). For each era, we systematically review the
justice issues raised by evolving expectations and rules over the
provision, distribution, and governance of adaptation finance. We conclude
by outlining future perspectives for adaptation finance and their
implications for climate justice.
