Attending UN climate negotiations for the first time is daunting, especially if it’s a Conference of the Parties (COP) session. With so many meetings happening in parallel — some open, some closed — and jargon and acronyms that constantly roll off people’s tongues, the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) process is notoriously complex. This toolkit has been written to help new delegates, in particular from the Least Developed Countries (LDCs), navigate the session. It focuses on the process, rather than the content of negotiations, and offers some practical ‘insider’ tips for getting through the days (and nights).
