# ๐ช๐น Ethiopia Climate Finance & Carbon Market Readiness Intelligence System
## ๐ Project Overview
This project is a **data-driven climate finance intelligence system** designed to analyze Ethiopiaโs climate finance landscape and assess its readiness for participation in global carbon markets under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement.
The system integrates real-world datasets, performs multi-layer analysis, and produces policy-relevant insights to support decision-making ahead of COP32.

## ๐ฏ Objectives
* Analyze climate finance flows to Ethiopia (2015โ2024)
* Identify donor dependencies and sector allocation patterns
* Evaluate climate finance alignment (adaptation vs mitigation)
* Assess carbon market readiness
* Model future scenarios for climate finance growth
* Generate policy recommendations and strategic insights

## ๐ง System Architecture
This project is structured into five key layers:
1. **Data Engineering Layer**
* Multi-year OECD CRS dataset ingestion (2015โ2024)
* Chunk-based processing for large-scale data
* Data cleaning, normalization, and transformation
2. **Data Processing & Feature Engineering**
* Climate tagging (Adaptation vs Mitigation)
* Sector mapping
* Donor and recipient structuring
3. **Analytics Layer**
* Climate finance trends
* Donor dependency analysis
* Sector distribution analysis
* Climate finance alignment
4. **Forecasting & Scenario Modeling**
* Time-series forecasting using Prophet
* Scenario simulations:
* Business-as-usual
* Policy improvement
* Carbon market expansion
5. **Policy Intelligence Layer**
* Carbon Market Readiness Score
* Risk analysis (dependency, misalignment)
* Policy recommendations aligned with COP32

## ๐ Key Insights
* Climate finance is growing (~8.7% annually)
* High donor concentration (~70% from top 2 donors)
* Only ~13% of funding is climate-targeted
* Significant funding directed to emergency response
* Adaptation-focused financing dominates over mitigation
