Supporting Climate Science and strengthening IPCC engagement in under-represented countries
Monday, 4th December 2023
This Session will address challenges that IPCC Member States face in supporting climate science and engaging with the IPCC. It will focus on common challenges faced by Least Developing Countries, small or emerging economies. These include language barriers, ways to foster climate-related research, identify authors or fund engagement in the IPCC. Challenges identified in the last cycle will be reviewed and then success stories will be highlighted. Participants will be asked to jointly brainstorm ways the IPCC can help strengthen capacity and ensure diverse Member State engagement in the AR7 cycle.
