             In 2022, the United Arab Emirates made a notable leap in its support for Sustainable Development Goal
             13 (Climate Action). The country’s commitment to this critical goal is evident in the surge of financial
             support, increasing from AED 1.1 million (USD 0.30 million) in disbursements in 2021 to a substantial
             AED 16.6 million (USD 4.5 million) in 2022. This represents the highest amount the UAE has disbursed
             towards SDG 13 in the past five years, demonstrating a growing commitment to addressing climate
             change.
