About

The SB62 climate meetings in Bonn mark a critical moment in this year’s international climate agenda, setting the tone and pace for negotiations leading up to COP30 in Belém. As part of the UNFCCC process, SB62 plays a key role in shaping how countries collaborate on urgent climate issues—including adaptation, which remains a cornerstone of climate justice and resilience for vulnerable communities.

Join us for a focused debrief where key adaptation experts who participated in SB62 will unpack what happened in Bonn specifically around climate adaptation. What progress was made on the Global Goal on Adaptation, National Adaptation Plans, climate finance and more? Where did we see setbacks or stalling in negotiations? And most importantly, what must happen between now and COP30 to keep ambition and equity at the center of the adaptation agenda?
