Analysis in this report draws on multiple information sources. Data on development finance flows were obtained from the OECD Creditor Reporting System (CRS) Aid Activities Database, which is maintained by the OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC). Information on climate targets and policies was retrieved from publicly available national policy documents, which directly and indirectly relate to climate actions (i.e. climate change mitigation and adaptation). The data sources also include a number of project-level documents prepared by bilateral and multilateral providers of finance. These include members of the OECD DAC, multilateral development banks (MDBs) and international climate funds, as well as some South-South co-operation and non-DAC member contributions.
