Martin Prowse

Evaluation Specialist at Independent Evaluation Unit | Green Climate Fund

“The programme surpassed my expectations with its carefully curated set of activities that stretched us and drew out how, as committed global citizens, we can contribute to the system-wide changes we need to make. This programme supports my ongoing evaluative and analytical work to steer the Green Climate Fund towards meeting the challenges of funding and designing investments for paradigm shifts and transitions across energy, building, industry and transport systems – alongside harnessing the potential of ecosystem-based approaches. 

The course encouraged all of us participants to commit to our climate values – we can all learn from each other and contribute to solving the climate crisis.”
