COP28 in the UAE will be a milestone moment when the world will take stock of its progress on the Paris Agreement.
The first Global Stocktake (GST), will provide a comprehensive assessment of progress since adopting the Paris Agreement. This will help align efforts on climate action, including measures that need to be put in place to bridge the gaps in progress.
