The June Climate Meetings (the 60th session of the subsidiary bodies under the UNFCCC – SB60) took place in Bonn, Germany, from 3 to 13 June 2024. Climate delegates from around the world were joined by stakeholders from the public and private sector for two weeks of discussions on climate action.
Given the 2024 deadline for the first Biennial Transparency Reports (BTRs) under the Paris Agreement, transparency took a prominent role. Transparency is at the heart of the Paris Agreement for a reason: It is central to effective climate action. The BTRs are due by the end of 2024 and the next Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) by February 2025. It is crucial to realize the synergy between the two, and maximize the resulting benefits. SB60 provided a platform to champion transparency, highlight achievements, and exchange experiences and best practices. This way, countries can accelerate national efforts towards effective climate action and prepare for the landmark moments of the first BTRs and updated NDCs.
ICAT hosted or contributed to a number of events and activities at SB60 aimed at supporting transparency efforts. This report provides a summary of the events. Explore the full report here.
