Climate change dominates G77+ China Kampala meeting

The Group of 77 (G77) and China lead negotiators are currently holding discussions in Kampala to discuss strategies around mitigating the ongoing global climate change crisis that is also affecting the host nation, Uganda.

Climate change remains a global concern- specifically its likely negative impacts on the future.

On October 14, climate funding negotiators commenced a 3-day meeting supported by the International Organisation on Migration (IOM) in Uganda’s capital.

Speaking to journalists on the sidelines of the discussions, Uganda’s permanent representative to the United Nations (UN), Ambassador Adonia Ayebare, acknowledged that financing remains a major topic following the 2015 Paris agreement.

“The Paris agreement says that developed countries have a responsibility to provide finance and we hope that this financing will be of scale…trillions of dollars, and quality, to address the climate change crisis,” Ambassador Ayebare said.
