COP29, the 29th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), is underway in Azerbaijan. This event gathers global leaders, environmental experts, and leading representatives from various sectors to discuss and negotiate climate change policies and actions.

Key objectives include enhancing commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, bolstering climate resilience, and mobilizing funding for climate initiatives. The event also emphasizes technological innovation, collaboration among nations, and the promotion of sustainable practices to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement.

This year, the conference focuses on addressing the needs of vulnerable countries, integrating climate justice into global strategies, and improving systems for accountability and transparency in climate finance. It aims to create actionable resolutions and strengthen international commitment to combating climate change.

What is COP29?

“The Conference of the Parties (COP) is held annually, with the Presidency rotating between the five recognized UN regions. This year, Azerbaijan has been selected as the Presidency of the 29th Conference of the Parties (COP29), to be hosted in Baku this November. Azerbaijan has a strong track record of hosting international events and has chosen Baku Stadium as the venue for COP29. To deliver a transparent, impartial, and inclusive process, the COP29 Presidency has developed a plan based on two mutually reinforcing pillars to enhance ambition and enable action. The UNFCCC website provides more details explaining the COP, the COP process, the issues under discussion, and the ongoing multilateral efforts.”
