The Organization of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS) Commission, in collaboration with key regional and international partners, is set to host the 3rd Caribbean NDC Investment Forum & Marketplace from March 31 to April 2, 2025, in Grenada. This premier event will bring together policymakers, private sector leaders, development agencies, and investors to accelerate financing for climate action and resilience-building in the Caribbean. Themed “Investing in Climate Action for a Resilient Future,” the investment forum will build on the successes of previous Forums held in Saint Lucia in 2018 and 2022, respectively.
As the region works towards implementing second-generation Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement, this Forum will serve as a vital platform to foster partnerships, share best practices, and mobilize financing for sustainable development. Since the adoption of the Paris Agreement in 2015, all six independent OECS Member States have ratified the treaty, committing to ambitious emissions reduction and climate adaptation targets.
The Caribbean NDC Investment Forum and Marketplace was founded by the Organization of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS), the Government of Saint Lucia, the NDC Partnership, and the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). The 3rd NDC Investment Forum is sponsored by the Government of Grenada, the European Union Global Gateway, the Caribbean Development Bank (CDB), the OPEC Fund for International Development, the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI), and the NDC Partnership.
