QUNO at Climate Meetings in Bonn
~
The first in-person climate negotiations in 2022 – and the precursor to COP27 in Egypt – took place in Bonn from 6th June to 16th June, 2022.
QUNO’s Human Impacts of Climate Change program was present as part of the RINGO constituency (Research and Independent Non-Governmental Organizations), joining the two-week meeting of Member States and representatives of civil society, Indigenous Peoples, business, and youth from around the world.
The Bonn meetings presented an opportunity to assess the state of progress on climate mitigation and adaptation, taking stock of where climate action is on track and where there are gaps in implementation, with targets not being met and greenhouse gas emissions continuing to rise.
QUNO was present throughout the two weeks, attending meetings and engaging with diplomats, UN, and civil society.
