What happened at COP29?
In this series, we share our experts’ thoughts on the advancements, or indeed deceleration, on tackling the global challenge of Climate Change.
COP29 was held in Baku, Azerbaijan
The primary goal was to bring countries together to develop a shared plan to tackling, and mitigating, climate change.
The largest climate conference globally
- In it’s 29th year, COP hosts delegates from over 200 countries – from business leaders, climate scientists, journalists, (social and economic) transition specialists, along side other experts and stakeholders.
- Acknowledging that the next wave of commitments will be critical in determining the speed at which the global economy decarbonises, COP29 is critical to our investment landscape.
- We began by covering the recent Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD COP16) as an introduction to the more widely covered and considered COP29. This conference was held at the end of October and was the first Biodiversity COP since the adoption of the Global Biodiversity Framework in 2022.
