Training Program

Mid-level government officials from central banks, ministries of economy and finance, revenue authority, and other agencies involved in monitoring and assessing the macroeconomic implications of climate change and related policies.

Participants are expected to have a degree in economics/finance or equivalent experience. Additionally, participants should have experience in forecasting and modeling and be proficient in Microsoft Excel.

During the selection process, priority will be given to participants who have previously completed the Financial Programming and Policies (FPP) and the Debt Dynamics Tool (DDT) courses, whether in the classroom or through online modalities (EDX).

With the impact of climate change on the economic activity becoming ever more pronounced and with climate policies expected to reshape many economies, government officials face the critical task of integrating these impacts into their macroeconomic frameworks. This course, offered by the Institute for Capacity Development, equips participants with Excel-based macroeconomic tools, frameworks, and models to incorporate climate considerations into policy design while addressing climate-related economic risks and vulnerabilities.
