What is
Loss and Damage?
This Is What We Do
Publications
We develop publications, including briefs and submissions, within our working groups and in collaboration with practitioners, researchers, activists, artists and decision makers from both the global North and South. We also host a library of Loss and Damage publications from a diverse range of actors.
Art and Culture
Our Art and Culture Program brings together cultural and creative practitioners and Loss and Damage actors to explore the role that the former can play in addressing loss and damage from climate change.

Events
We host and facilitate events and participate in collaboration with practitioners, researchers, activists and decision makers from both the global North and South on a range of topics relating to the need to address loss and damage from climate change.

Loss and Damage Finance
Our project on Loss and Damage finance works to address two key issues: The first is to be able to mobilise finance at the scale of the needs with a focus on addressing loss and damage. The second is providing thought leadership on how finance should be channelled to vulnerable developing countries and the vulnerable people and communities within them. Following COP 27 our work will include a focus on operationalising the Loss and Damage fund as well as ensuring Loss and Damage is included in the New Collective Quantified Goal on climate finance.
Non - Economic Loss and Damage
Our Non-economic Loss and Damage (NELD) Project works to shine a spotlight on the non-economic dimensions of loss and damage within the UNFCCC process, academia, and other forums relevant to Loss and Damage decision-making. Through an exploration of how we can measure, assess, and address NELD, the group works to further understanding and awareness of this critical yet undervalued component of climate governance.
LDYC
The Loss and Damage Youth Coalition (LDYC) is an alliance of youth from the global North and South who have come together to demand action on addressing Loss and Damage caused by climate change. With more than 640 members from over 60+ countries the LDYC is working to build a borderless global partnership between youth to take action on addressing loss and damage. LDYC is a separate and distinct initiative which grew out of L&DC’s work and with whom we continue to work closely.
Stories
We gather stories, blogs and opinion pieces from those working on Loss and Damage. Ranging from lived experiences to trials and tribulations at the negotiating table, to visions for a climate just future, these works stress the need to address loss and damage at all levels and also highlight issues relevant for the Loss and Damage community, which is the broad community of stakeholders —initiatives, movements, campaigns, organisations, communities and countries— working to ensure that vulnerable people, communities and countries have the resources and tools they need to address loss and damage. 
Santiago Network
Our Santiago Network project provides a space for the sharing of technical expertise as well as the development of papers and briefs to support thought leadership on the effective operationalisation of the Santiago Network under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). Following COP 27 this work will include a focus on ensuring that the Santiago Network is adequately resourced to provide technical assistance to vulnerable developing countries.
Support Centre
Our Support Centre hosts resources for vulnerable developing country negotiators and supports young negotiators from vulnerable developing countries through the New Generation program.
