African negotiators seek delivery of climate commitments at COP31
The African Group of Negotiators on Climate Change (AGN) has called for the delivery of existing climate commitments and predictable, scalable grant-based climate finance for adaptation in Africa at the 31st Conference of the Parties (COP31).
The African Group of Negotiators on Climate Change (AGN) is urging for the delivery of existing climate commitments and predictable, scalable grant-based climate finance for adaptation in Africa at COP31. The group, led by Nana Dr Antwi-Boasiako Amoah, emphasizes the need for Africa's priorities to shift towards securing practical outcomes that enable countries to implement their National Adaptation Plans (NAPs), Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), and long-term climate strategies.
Amoah highlighted that COP31 should be an "implementation COP" for Africa, focusing on translating climate commitments into concrete action, such as ensuring access to climate finance, technology, stronger national capacities, and support to move adaptation plans from policy documents to investment.
