Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled for a two-day visit to Dubai, UAE, starting from November 30th to participate in the World Climate Action Summit. The summit serves as the High-Level Segment of the 28th Conference of Parties, COP-28, to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, UNFCCC. Taking place from November 28th to December 12th, COP-28 is held under the Presidency of the UAE.
COP-28, a gathering of nations, presents a unique chance to accelerate joint efforts in tackling the common challenge of climate change. During the previous COP-26 in Glasgow, Prime Minister Modi outlined five specific targets known as “Panchamrit” as India’s remarkable contribution to global climate action. Additionally, he introduced the Mission Lifestyle for Environment (LiFE). India, under its G20 Presidency, has placed significant emphasis on climate change, as reflected in the New Delhi Leaders’ Declaration and other achievements.
The upcoming COP-28 provides a platform to build upon these accomplishments and advance collective efforts in addressing climate change challenges. During his visit, Prime Minister Modi will engage in bilateral meetings with several leaders participating in the Summit, fostering international collaboration on climate action.
