13 Climate Budget Tagging: Amplifying Sub-National Government’s …

to maintain growth and achieve climate targets should be a non-sectoral attempt.
They should not be only the responsibility of one government institution.
As a means to strengthen climate governance and climate commitment compliance, series of analyses and recommendations can become viable options to amplify
the role of provincial and district governments. Most importantly, these recommendations can be used as ways to accommodate climate actions through more systematic
planning and budgeting from one level of government to the level below it. This
includes valuing districts with high ecological value, which perform climate-explicit
activities planning and budgeting, with more fiscal support to compensate for costs in
conducting climate mitigation. Such settings eliminate the economic limitation that
otherwise exists when a region is unable to arbitrage their natural resources but needs
to pay for the cost of natural resource protection and climate mitigation. This way,
climate financing at the sub-national level can be amplified in terms of transparency,
consistency and accountability.
