The 31st Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP31) opened on Monday (9) in Antalya, Türkiye. Plataforma CIPÓ will follow the negotiations until 20 November.
One year after Belém, the conference puts to the test the implementation of the commitments made in the Amazon. It takes place amid geopolitical tensions, tight budgets and increasingly severe climate impacts. For the first time, the presidency is split: Türkiye hosts the conference and Australia leads the negotiations.
Finance and just transition at the heart of the agenda
On climate finance, the question is how to deliver to developing countries the US$300 billion a year promised by 2035, on the way to US$1.3 trillion, and how to keep the pledge to triple adaptation finance.
On just transition, the Just Transition Mechanism created at COP30 needs to have its mandate, functions and work plan defined in Antalya. The goal is to ensure that the shift in development model protects workers, communities and Indigenous Peoples.
COP31 also marks the start of the second Global Stocktake under the Paris Agreement, which is expected to show by 2028 where implementation is falling behind. CIPÓ will also follow the roadmaps for transitioning away from fossil fuels and for halting deforestation, launched by Brazil’s COP30 Presidency.
Publication on technology and clima
During the conference, CIPÓ and World-Transforming Technologies (WTT) are launching the publication Technology & Climate: Pathways to Advancing the Implementation of Solutions under the UNFCCC.
The study gives an overview of the technology agenda in the climate negotiations, from its history to the new Belém Technology Implementation Programme (BTIP), adopted at COP30. It also brings together recommendations built in dialogue with more than 60 Brazilian civil society organizations and social movements. The aim is for climate technologies to respond to developing countries’ priorities and to strengthen South–South cooperation.
