UNFPA at the UN Climate Change Conference - COP 28

30 November 2023

Dubai, United Arab Emirates

Join us at COP 28 as the global community grapples with a pivotal moment for climate action.

The UN remains steadfast in its commitment to the 1.5-degree temperature limit, considering it the guiding principle for enhancing global mitigation efforts.

This year's global stocktake will offer a sobering assessment of progress made and underscore the necessary course corrections. Simultaneously, addressing the needs of vulnerable populations in developing countries, at the forefront of the climate emergency, is widely regarded as a moral imperative.

The inaugural Health Day on 3 December will illustrate the interconnectedness of human health and the planet. This day serves as a crucial opportunity to shed light on the climate emergency's impact on the health and protection needs of women and girls.

At COP28, UNFPA will co-convene a series of side events, in collaboration with various partners, to highlight the impact of the climate crisis on women and girls and outline solutions for progress. The climate crisis is not gender neutral and all leaders at COP 28 must prioritize the needs of women and girls in climate action.
