Event Description:
United Nation Climate Change Conference COP23 Fiji was deemed as a Pacific COP. Were the needs of Pacific Islanders addressed this year’s COP? Were the issues of Loss and Damage given their due attention in UNFCCC COP23?
How far will parties go to maintain the momentum of Paris, or the current name “Fiji Momentum of Implementation”? The Paris Agreement “rulebook” is meant to be finalized in the next COP. This will require lots of negotiations (or rather compromising) to sort out a number of issues.

COP23 has officially ended, on 7am 18th Nov, with some issues resolved but there are still plenty left to negotiate when delegates reconvene at the next session before COP24 in Poland. Want to know more?

ABOUT THE MALAYSIAN YOUTH DELEGATION (MYD)
A group of young passionate Malaysians who represent the local youth climate movement at international climate conferences, such as the annual Conference of the Parties (COP), part of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). Dedicated to raising awareness of climate policies amongst Malaysians, the youth are mentored and trained to translate technical policies into more relevant and relatable information for the public. MYD holds speaking engagements with various climate organisations to better understand the current landscape of local and international climate policy. With that, MYD endeavours to hold Malaysian leaders accountable for the promises made at international climate summits.
