During the 2024 UN Climate Change Conference (UNFCCC COP 29), the Azerbaijani Presidency will host the World Leaders Climate Action Summit, convening world leaders to present national statements on how they are advancing the Paris Agreement on climate change. During the event, the Presidency will co-host a methane and non-carbon dioxide (non-CO2) greenhouse gas (GHG) summit with the US and China.
The Summit aims to build consensus and momentum around the COP 29 plan to enhance ambition and enable action and demonstrate to all stakeholders a clear political will to deliver. Leader dialogues will address raising ambition for mitigation and adaptation through nationally determined contributions (NDCs), National Adaptation Plans (NAPs), and long-term low-emission development strategies (LT-LEDS), enabling action with the New Collective Quantified Goal on Climate (NCQG), and other means of implementation and support.
