Convention of Copenhagen
The Convention of Copenhagen, formally known as the Copenhagen Accord, is an international agreement aimed at addressing climate change. It was established during the United Nations Climate Change Conference in 2009, where countries came together to discuss strategies for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and limiting global warming. The accord emphasizes the importance of financial and technological support for developing nations to help them adapt to climate impacts.
The convention encourages nations to set their own emission reduction targets, known as Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), and to report on their progress. While it was not legally binding, the Copenhagen Accord marked a significant step in global climate negotiations, fostering cooperation among countries to combat climate change.
