This paper outlines the importance of assessing international climate finance contributions while describing the difficulties in arriving at agreed measurements and indicators for assessment. The authors argue that, in many cases, data is neither readily available nor complete, and there is no consensus on what should be included. A number of indicators are proposed in this study as a starting point with which to analyze voluntary contributions, but in some cases their methodologies are not complete, and further research is required for a robust measurement tool to be created.
