Climate Chance is committed to bringing the voice of non-state actors to the heart of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), to present the progress of its latest work and to build synergies with major networks and organisations of climate action actors also present in Sharm el-Sheik.
This year, the association will defend and disseminate the priorities and common advocacy proposals resulting from the Dakar Declaration of African non-state actors meeting in October at the Climate Chance Africa Summit.
COP27 will also be the occasion for Climate Chance to publish the new Global Synthesis Report on Climate Action by sector, and to continue its mission of observing the implementation of announced actions, monitoring the evolution of emissions and analysing the strategies of non-state actors.
