"COP presents the Baku Climate and Peace Action Hub as a platform for cooperation and joint activities," Elshad Iskenderov, Ambassador-at-Large of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Azerbaijan, said during his speech at the High-level Roundtable – Network-building to strengthen peace and resilience in climate-vulnerable settings held within the framework of COP29 in Baku, APA reports.
The Ambassador noted that for the first time in COP history, Azerbaijan did not prepare its own initiative as the COP Presidency: "Instead, we created a platform so that already established initiatives co-create with each other. These initiatives include COP27 Climate Responses for Sustaining Peace (CRSP),' COP28’s 'Declaration on Climate, Relief, Recovery, and Peace,' as well as important initiatives outside the advocacy process, such as Climate for Peace and others,'" he said.
"We, as the hosts of the Baku Hub, which will be seated in Baku, are ready to provide this platform for multiple stakeholders, and first and foremost, to the most vulnerable countries. We must seize this critical moment together to offer bold and inclusive solutions," Elshad Iskenderov added.
