#COP27 has taken an important step towards justice.

I welcome the decision to establish a loss and damage fund and to operationalize it in the coming period.

Clearly this will not be enough, but it is a much-needed political signal to rebuild broken trust.

[COP27 @COP27P]

History was made today at #COP27 in Sharm El-Sheikh as parties agreed to the establishment of a long-awaited loss and damage fund for assisting developing countries that are particularly vulnerable to the adverse effects of climate change.

As negotiations round up today..
We expect progress on committments from World leaders on #ClimateAction
Trade Unions remain resolute in our role as 'watchdogs' as we advance the interest of #people and #planet over #profits
From the inner chambers of #COP27...
Aluta continua 👊🏽

.@_cosatu representative gives an overview of the importance of #SocialDialogue when ensuring a #TustTransition.

There are questions: While JT is advanced in South Africa how do we ensure that this spreads to the rest of Africa?

The “African COP” will it deliver? African #tradeunions at #cop27 have 5 key demands. They are working hard to ensure they are included in the negotiations

✅Climate 💰
✅Adaption 💰
✅ Loss and damage 💰
✅Mitigation ambition 💰
✅JUST TRANSITION↩️

The people united, will never be defeated! A powerful action by civil society groups to send a message to Global leaders! Trade unions were present to remind all 'there is no climate justice without labor rights' @ituc @ituc_africa #climateaction #cop27 #unions4climate
