Dubai, Uae (ots/PRNewswire) - COP28 today launched a partnership with
Azerbaijan and Brazil, who will host COP29 and COP30 respectively, to
improve cooperation and continuity between current and future COP
Presidencies, leading to increased climate action in support of
'Mission 1.5°C'.
* The COP Presidencies Troika, a key achievement of the COP28
Presidency mandated by the UAE Consensus, unites COP28 with the
next two COP Presidencies – Azerbaijan and Brazil – to drive
ambitious collective climate action. The three will work on the
'Roadmap to Mission 1.5°C'.
* COP28 President Dr. Sultan Al Jaber said: "The Troika represents
critical and unprecedented collaboration to maintain momentum,
lock in continuity and anchor implementation."
* It will provide a platform for the three Presidencies to
collaborate on various activities until COP30, to raise ambition
across all pillars of the Paris Agreement to course correct in
line with the UAE Consensus agreed in Dubai.
* The collaboration between the three COP Presidencies, or Troika,
was mandated in the UAE Consensus to "significantly enhance
international cooperation and the international enabling
environment to stimulate ambition in the next round of nationally
determined contributions, with a view to enhancing action and
implementation over this critical decade and keeping 1.5°C within
reach."
* Representatives of the three COP Presidencies met at Expo City
Dubai, to launch the COP Presidencies Troika.
* COP28 President Dr. Sultan Al Jaber said: "At COP28, Parties
mobilized behind historic climate action through both the
negotiations and their commitments to the Presidential Action
Agenda. We cannot afford to lose momentum; we must do everything
we can to keep 1.5°C within reach."
* The Troika's laser focus on the 2025 Nationally Determined
Contributions (NDCs) will ensure that countries' individual
commitments deliver enhanced climate action, are guided by
climate
urgency. Its work to mobilize political momentum and channel
resources towards NDCs will help to ensure ambition by all
countries, while supporting developing countries in accelerating
just transition.
* UN Climate Change Executive Secretary Simon Stiell said: "The
unity of this Troika will help deliver on the ambition needed to
tackle climate change, through collaboration, cooperation and
coordination.'"
The partnership, known as The COP Presidencies Troika, marks the
first time that a current COP Presidency has been formally mandated
to unite with two future presidencies to foster international
cooperation to stimulate ambition. COP28 President Dr. Sultan Al
Jaber emphasized the importance of this partnership, stating, "The
Troika represents critical and unprecedented collaboration to
maintain momentum, lock in continuity and anchor implementation."
The Troika, which means group of three, will help to ensure the
delivery of the Presidencies' collective responsibilities and support
of global priorities, which in turn will transform agreement into
action by government and non-government stakeholders.
Speaking at the launch of the Troika, held in Expo City Dubai, COP28
President Dr. Sultan Al Jaber said: "COP28 delivered a different,
groundbreaking COP, that culminated in The UAE Consensus. At COP28,
Parties mobilized behind historic climate action through both the
negotiations and their commitments to the Presidential Action Agenda.
The Troika helps ensure we have the collaboration and continuity
required to keep the North Star of 1.5°C in sight—from Baku to Belém
and beyond. The breakthroughs we all achieved at COP28 must carry
forward to COP29 and 30—in ambitious nationally determined
contributions, climate finance follow through, and accelerated
implementation."
An agreement for the three Presidencies to work together on a
'Roadmap to Mission 1.5°C' was mandated by the UAE Consensus.
Supported by all 198 Parties, this agreement must now be actioned
under the COP Presidencies Troika.
The agreement states that the partnership will "significantly enhance
international cooperation and the international enabling environment
to stimulate ambition in the next round of nationally determined
contributions, with a view to enhancing action and implementation
over this critical decade and keeping 1.5°C within reach."
Dr. Al Jaber said: "The UAE Consensus included a clear mandate for
the three Presidencies—the UAE, Azerbaijan and Brazil—to cooperate on
the 'Roadmap to Mission 1.5°C'. We will be working together through
the COP Presidencies Troika, with our friends in Baku and Brazil, to
ensure that promises made in Dubai are fulfilled through closer,
focused partnerships and credible support to enable delivery.
Together we ensure that new agreements forged at the next COP set us
on the path we need to achieve our mission."
COP29, in Baku, Azerbaijan, is expected to agree on a New Collective
Quantified Goal (NCQG) on climate finance to respond to the needs and
priorities of developing countries. The adoption of the NCQG will
constitute the most significant climate finance milestone since the
2009 commitment by developed countries to a goal of mobilizing
jointly USD $100 billion a year by 2020 to address the needs of
developing countries.
Building on both the UAE Consensus and the outcomes of Baku, at COP30
in Brazil, the Troika's laser focus on the 2025 Nationally Determined
Contributions (NDCs) round will ensure that countries' individual
commitments deliver ambitious climate action. This will accelerate
the global collective ability to meet the Paris goals in the context
of sustainable development and efforts to eradicate poverty.
COP29 President-Designate Mukhtar Babayev, Azerbaijan's Minister for
Ecology and Natural Resources, joined Dr. Al Jaber, and highlighted:
"We are committed to leveraging our strength as a bridge builder
between the developed and developing world as host of COP29, to
accelerate efforts to keep 1.5 in reach. Key to that will be
establishing a new climate finance goal that reflects the scale and
urgency of the climate challenge. And equally important, unlocking
those funds and getting them to the nations that need them most."
Minister Marina Silva, Brazil's Minister of the Environment and
Climate Change, said: "As I said in Dubai, we need to make the most
of the opportunity that this Troika of COP Presidencies presents: to
ensure that in these coming two years we will be able to do what
science tells us we have to, in the last window of opportunity to
achieve the 1.5°C ambition."
Following the launch of the Troika, Simon Stiell, the UN Climate
Change Executive Secretary, said: "The unity of this Troika will help
deliver on the ambition needed to tackle climate change, through
collaboration, cooperation and coordination. This is an opportunity
to cement what was agreed at COP28, ensure that it is enabled by
COP29 and the subsequent actions taken at COP30 with new ambitious
NDCs - shifting finance from trickles to torrents and delivering
1.5°C aligned NDCs."
Notes to Editors COP28 UAE:
* At the historic COP28, countries came together to deliver The UAE
Consensus - the most ambitious and comprehensive set of
negotiated
outcomes to come out of the UNFCCC process since COP21.
* The UAE Consensus includes an unprecedented reference to
transitioning away from all fossil fuels in energy systems, in a
just, orderly and equitable manner in this critical decade to
enable the world to reach net zero emissions by 2050, in keeping
with the science.
* An important opportunity lies in working multilaterally on
commitments to deliver high-ambition decisions at COP28,
including
through the UAE Consensus. This can lead to real economy action
for 2030 and help with setting of interim targets that strengthen
the NDCs in 2025 in the lead-up to COP30.
