Watch Below 1.5 by 2025: The Plan live on We Don't Have Time
The stakes could not be higher – 2023 was the hottest year on record with several climate-related disasters devastating life, health, economy, and development.
The next two years are among the best chance we have to safeguard sustainable development and keep global warming below 1.5° C. The pledges under the Paris Agreement – Nationally Determined Contributions – are more important than ever.
Join UNDP and our partners for ‘Below 1.5 By 2025: The Plan’ on 23 April 2024 at 15:00 EDT / 21:00 CEST at the United Nations Headquarters and online on We Don't Have Time.
Let us break the norm and go beyond business as usual to inspire and mobilize collective action, while focusing on new ways of approaching the climate crisis, doubling down on solutions that work, and sharing lessons from the frontlines of UNDP’s portfolio in nearly 150 countries.
