Climate Champions launch programme for Bonn Intersessional

By Climate Champions | May 24, 2022

The UN Climate Change High-Level Champions are pleased to announce their programme for the 56th session of the subsidiary bodies, which will take place from June 6-16 2022 at the World Convention Center Bonn, Germany.

The Intersessional is a two-week long conference hosting a wide range of events, meetings, and negotiating sessions at the mid-point between COPs, especially for the UNFCCC Subsidiary Body for Implementation (SBI) and Subsidiary Body for Scientific and Technological Advice (SBSTA).

As UN Climate Change High-Level Champions, Nigel Topping and Dr Mahmoud Mohieldin will demonstrate how the non-state actor (NSA) agenda is complementing key areas of the intergovernmental process, particularly on implementation, integrity, finance mobilization, the Global Stocktake and Loss & Damage.
