Join ICLEI South Asia at COP27

The 27th Conference of the Parties (COP) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) will bring together delegates from nearly 200 countries to negotiate global goals for tackling climate change. Nearly a year ago, COP26 culminated with the formulation of the Glasgow Climate Pact that adhered to taking climate action initiatives and transforming the cities into resilient and sustainable cities. ICLEI South Asia highlighted the global south commitment to climate action at COP26, click here to get highlights from last year.

This year, COP27 will take place in the Egyptian city of Sharm El-Sheikh and will bring particular attention on strengthening adaptation and resilience, mitigating emissions, facilitating a just transition, and increasing funding and collaboration for essential climate solutions. ICLEI South Asia’s Executive Director Emani Kumar, as well as Deputy Director Ms. Soumya Chaturvedula, will be speaking in several events at COP27. Other ICLEI experts have also been invited to share their knowledge in official side events as well as other activities organised throughout the COP.
