COP28 stands for the 28th meeting of the Conference of the Parties (COP) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).

COPs take place every year, and are the world’s only multilateral decision-making forum on climate change with almost complete membership of every country in the world.  

To put it simply, the COP is where the world comes together to agree on ways to address the climate crisis, such as limiting global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees Celsius, helping vulnerable communities adapt to the effects of climate change, and achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.

Modi is leaving for Dubai this evening to attend the World Climate Action Summit and, participate in three other high-level side events.
