Fostering South-South Partnerships to Accelerate the Climate Justice

  TBC

Background:
South-South Cooperation plays a pivotal role in the broader context of climate action by fostering collaboration among developing nations in the Global South. Given their shared vulnerabilities to climate change, these countries benefit from exchanging knowledge, expertise, and resources. By working together, they can accelerate the implementation of sustainable development initiatives, renewable energy projects, and climate adaptation strategies. This collaborative approach not only strengthens individual nations but also contributes to the overall global effort to address the challenges of climate change.

Objectives:
1. Explore how South-South partnerships deliver results that make a significant impact
2. South-South collective actions to lead the journey of Brazil to Australia

Session Plan:
The event will feature a panel discussion involving distinguished leaders from diverse backgrounds, each bringing unique perspectives and expertise. The speakers will delve into the pressing challenges and opportunities surrounding climate diplomacy and the climate justice agenda, sharing insights and real-life experiences from their initiatives and advocacy efforts. Following the panel discussion, the floor will be opened to the audience for an engaging Q&A session, allowing participants to seek clarity, share their perspectives, and explore collaborative pathways with the speakers. This interactive segment aims to bridge gaps, enrich the conversation, and ensure that diverse voices are heard.

Conclusion & Outcome:
To conclude the session, a Collective Action Statement will be co-developed, synthesizing the key points discussed during the event. This statement will serve as a strategic document, outlining priority actions and commitments for stakeholders and actors from the Global South to effectively address climate justice challenges and strengthen their role in global climate diplomacy.
