UAE minister of climate change and environment to visit Azerbaijan for COP29

09 November 2024 10:44

Amna bint Abdullah Al Dahak, Minister of Climate Change and Environment of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), will visit Azerbaijan to participate in the UN climate conference COP29, set to take place in Baku.

The official opening of COP29 will be held on November 11, followed by the Leaders' Summit on November 12-13, Caliber.Az reports per local media.

Additionally, a meeting of First Ladies will take place in the Green Zone on November 12.

While the conference is scheduled to conclude on November 22, its duration may be extended depending on ongoing negotiations.

The 29th session of the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP29) will be held in Azerbaijan on November 11-22. This decision was made at the COP28 plenary session in Dubai on December 11, 2023.

COP29 is a pivotal opportunity to accelerate action to tackle the climate crisis. During two weeks, Baku will welcome around 70,000 to 80,000 international guests, including leaders from governments, business and civil society to advance concrete solutions to the record-high global temperatures, and extreme weather events affecting people around the globe.

A key focus of COP29 will be on finance, as trillions of dollars are required for countries to drastically reduce greenhouse gas emissions and protect lives and livelihoods from the worsening impacts of climate change.

The conference will also be a key moment for countries to present their updated national climate action plans under the Paris Agreement, which are due by early 2025. If done right, these plans will limit global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels and double as investment plans advancing the Sustainable Development Goals.
