| As one of the world’s least developed countries, Laos falls among those countries most vulnerable to climate change, with annual rising temperatures combined with increasingly severe droughts, extreme rainfall and flooding, impacting people’s lives and livelihoods.

The Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Finland has made a commitment of an additional EUR 4 million to EEP Africa. | |
