Climate Change has occupied boardrooms and conference halls across the world for a considerable time now. The next opportunity for the nations of the world d is to discuss this issue is the COP 21 in December 2015 in Paris.
Building up to COP 21, about 150 delegates from relevant stakeholders departments, industries, civil society, community representatives, organised labour, traditional leadership and other interested and affected parties will attend the provincial stakeholder consultation workshop to exchange and share views.
The consultations will provide an opportunity to discuss the South African position, fill gaps and build a common understanding and approach towards Paris, and develop a common South African position on the framing of nationally determined contribution, prior to communicating this to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) secretariat, COP21. These provincial engagements will provide an opportunity to raise awareness, mobilise, inform and engage with key stakeholder groups and the general public around climate change issues and climate change response efforts at all levels.
