COP29 in Baku was a special event for climate transparency: As 2024 is the year when the first biennial transparency reports (BTRs) are due, COP29 was a moment to celebrate progress and recognize the submission of many BTRs already two months before the deadline. The COP29 Presidency held a ministerial roundtable on global climate transparency, which recognized the BTRs submitted, including those of three ICAT countries (Maldives, Kazakhstan, and Panama). At the event, several countries acknowledged ICAT support.
COP29 was also an excellent opportunity to focus on how transparency could help countries be better prepared to put the Paris Agreement on track to meeting its objectives and set the foundations for long-term effective climate action. Show-casing examples of how this is done and enabling an exchange between national experts was the focus of ICAT’s activities in Baku.
