Global Stocktake - What is it and (why) does it matter?

Place: Norway Pavilion, Zone B6 Building 74

 

According to the Paris agreement, the UNFCCC will regularly assess countries' collective progress towards achieving the agreement’s long-term goals.  The purpose of the stocktake is to enhance the countries actions and international cooperation.

Will the first ever Global Stock Take of 2023 speed up progress towards cutting emissions, increasing climate finance, adaptation, and technology transfer? And is the link between climate change and health being considered? Leading researchers and policy experts will discuss.
