A 2030 Vision for the UNFCCC Climate Action Agenda
The Center for Climate and Energy Solutions (C2ES) is pleased to invite you to attend a high-level panel discussion on a vision for the global climate action agenda (GCAA) at the UNFCCC during New York Climate Week and the High-Level Week of the UN General Assembly.
The discussion will explore how utilizing the framework of the outcome of the first global stocktake (GST1) can: help (i) ground the GCAA in taking forward collectively agreed priorities; and (ii) ensure enhanced international cooperation for implementation under the UNFCCC up to 2030 and beyond.
In light of submissions received in response to the call for input by the Climate High Level Champions (CHLC) on views for the development of a five-year plan for the GCAA, speakers will consider how a 2030 vision for the GCAA could:
· implement and build on the vision the incoming COP30 Presidency set out in its 4th Letter
· strengthen cooperation between Parties and non-Party stakeholders, including through multilateral organizations participating in the GCAA and formal UNFCCC processes, and
· empower international cooperative initiatives to support the achievement of GST1 outcomes, target tracking, and communication of collective progress toward GST targets, increasing the accountability of GST-aligned voluntary action to 2030.
Moderated by Kaveh Guilanpour, Vice President of International Strategies at C2ES, high-level speakers for this event will be communicated closer to the date.
Please arrive early to guarantee your seat. Doors will open at 4:00pm.
