Partnerships to Strengthen Climate Resilience in Least Developed Countries (side-event at COP29)
14 November 2024. "The COP29 side event, “Partnerships to Strengthen Climate Resilience in Least Developed Countries,” brings together key stakeholders to address the urgent climate challenges facing LDCs, who are disproportionately impacted by climate change. Despite minimal contributions to global emissions, LDCs face significant vulnerability due to limited adaptive capacity. Supported by UNIDO, GEF, Climate Analytics, and IIED, this event underscores a commitment to bolstering LDC resilience through coordinated action, resource access, and partnership building. A joint statement will be announced, reaffirming strengthened partnerships to support adaptation, resilience, and access to climate finance, and fostering collaboration for long-term climate action."
