Background information
Baku time: 14:15-15:15
This event, co-hosted by the COP28 Presidency, the European Commission, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Brazil and the IEA, will bring together key high-level actors from government, international organisations and financial institutions at COP29 to discuss advancing the global transition away from fossil fuels. It will be moderated by European Commission Director-General for Energy Ditte Juul Jørgensen.
One year after the adoption of the historic UAE Consensus at COP28, the discussion will explore what a just, orderly and equitable transition away from fossil fuels looks like in practice. The dialogue will take stock of the progress achieved by different countries and regions and will highlight additional efforts needed to achieve the COP28 energy goals, in line with the Paris Agreement.
