Led by seven women from the global south, representing the flooding water in the stunt, the crowd shouts 'Pay up, pay up, pay up for loss and damage!', referring to the way rich countries who are the most responsible for climate change have a moral obligation to support less developed nations in their work to adapt and mitigate the consequences of the climate crisis on vulnerable communities. Here pictured, Gina Cortés Valderama, from Women Engage for a Common Future, International Foundation, leads the rally.
