UN Climate Change Conference (COP27)

In November 2022, Egypt will host the 27th Conference of the Parties of the UNFCCC (COP27) in Sharm El Sheikh, with a view to building on previous successes and paving the way for future ambition.

A golden opportunity for all stakeholders to rise to the occasion and tackle effectively the global challenge of climate change facilitated by Egypt on the African continent.Africa is determined to show its leadership in climate action through showcasing its contributions to global movement to tackle climate change, its role in facilitating and mobilizing action at scale, its vision for a just and sustainable future to its people and to the wider global population.

The hope is that COP27 will be the turning point where the world came together and demonstrated the requisite political will to take on the climate challenge through concerted, collaborative and impactful action. Where agreements and pledges were translated to projects and programs, where the world showed that we are serious in working together and in rising to the occasion, where climate change seized to be a zero sum equation and there is no more " us and them" but one international community working for the common good of our shared planet and humanity.
