Such a pleasure to work with @MLundLarsen and Tancrède Voituriez on this article on #China’s overseas development funds and evaluating their #Sustainability
My latest article is out today in the Journal of International Development @JID_journal. Co-authored with Tancrède Voituriez and @nedopil.
We show that Chinese sovereign-backed overseas development funds have a severely lacking sustainability approach

What are the trends in #bri #greendevelopment and beyond? Thanks for the opportunity to share some of our findings here
Belt and Road infrastructure projects are getting slightly greener, making up 26.1% of overseas energy engagement in 2022. Fossil fuel related projects still made up 60%, however.

Great to be working with great colleagues on this brief on early #coal retirement. More work to be done to actually implement it for cheaper energy and lower emissions.

environmentchinapodcast.com/… @envirochina podcast today talks with @nedopil of Fudan University about Green Belt and Road, why China stopped financing overseas coal, and what the heck is MCDF?
Happy to share my latest article on the #China led #development institution #MCDF. We argue it should focus on #greenfinance and #multilateralism thanks to my co-authors @MLundLarsen @mengdiyue
Can China’s latest development finance institution, the Multilateral Cooperation Center for Development Finance, help close the financing gap for sustainable infrastructure?

Thanks a lot for inviting me again to the podcast! Always a pleasure to talk with @eolander and @stadenesque
[#PODCAST] There's a big shift underway in Chinese overseas energy & development financing to focus on projects that are smaller, greener, and a lot less risky. @nedopil closely follows these trends and joins us to discuss findings from his H1 2021 report: bit.ly/3DvXR7p
