GCA South Asia
Our regional office in South Asia was launched in September 2020 with the Prime Minister of Bangladesh Sheikh Hasina, Prime Minister of the Kingdom of the Netherlands Mark Rutte, and our co-Chair Ban Ki-moon with the support of South Asian Heads of State and Government. The launch was followed by a Partnership Forum which brought together stakeholders from across the continent to discuss how GCA South Asia can support their efforts to accelerate climate adaptation.
