- The liveliness of the event was illustrated by the fact the slides being presented seemed to take on a life of their own, skipping forward and backward beyond the control of the presenters
- You could say it's a good argument for devolved control of slides to local presenters. More on #climatefinance parallels shortly... #COP22 https://twitter.com/IIED/status/797032071180992518 …
- With those problems resolved, IIED researcher Marek Soanes moved on to tackling the challenge of getting climate finance to the local level

- Now: How do we move towards #climatefinance planning, in terms of integration. Not what needs to be done, but how to do it? #COP22
- @JaneWilkinsonn: It's pretty much impossible at the moment to track [#climatefinance) from the national to local level #COP22
- @JaneWilkinsonn: Without knowing this we can’t measure how it impacts on the ground. It's a big gap in our current knowledge #COP22 https://twitter.com/IIED/status/797039121390833665 …
