"This COP, against the wishes of the vulnerable countries, has unfortunately adopted a $300 billion target (to be met in 2035),

less than a quarter of what science shows is needed and barely enough to forestall a climate catastrophe,"

We are excited to share that we will be hosting a series of side events, beginning with the Pre-COP 29 convening on November 9th!

These events aim to create an inclusive space for meaningful dialogue between policymakers and the community, fostering collaborative approaches to tackling the climate crisis. The Pre-COP convening is particularly significant as it serves to consolidate and validate Africa's common position for COP 29, demanding that all Parties ‘Keep their Promise’ by securing the New Collective Quantified Goal in Baku and ensuring the continuous flow of climate finance needed to combat the climate crisis effectively.

We invite you to be part of these vital discussions and initiatives, contributing your voice and insights. Let’s work together to drive real change for a sustainable future!
