The 29th Conference of the Parties (COP29) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) took place from November 11 to 24, 2024, in Baku, Azerbaijan, under the theme "In Solidarity for a Green World." Dubbed the "Finance COP," it focused on establishing a new collective quantified goal (NCQG) for climate finance, operationalising key mechanisms from prior COPs, and advancing adaptation and mitigation efforts

Parties agreed to mobilise at least $300 billion annually by 2035 from public and private sources to support developing countries' mitigation and adaptation efforts, tripling the previous $100 billion target.
