The objective of this briefing is to characterise this urban climate investment challenge across multiple dimensions, survey financial pathways emerging today and consider future directions.

We note exemplary contributions being made on these questions by scholars in the humanities and social sciences, as well as key issues that require more understanding and publicly engaged scholarship. We organize our observations into three overarching propositions.
