COP 29 | NDC Ambition and Transitioning Away from Fossil Fuels in a Just, Orderly, and Equitable Manner

The COP 28 global stocktake affirmed the need to transition away from fossil fuels. An important way to deliver on the COP 28 decision is through the next round ("third generation") of national climate plans. These nationally determined contributions (NDCs) to the Paris Agreement are due for submission by February 10, 2025, with targets out to 2035.

Through storytelling and high-level panel discussion, this event will showcase what leading countries are doing to ensure a just transition away from fossil fuels and the challenges they are facing in doing so. Civil society experts will discuss how to overcome those challenges and advance ambition more broadly through the next round of NDCs.
