Climate summit COP29

Climate summit COP29 takes place at the Baku Olympic Stadium, hosting a programme of exhibitions and talks. The summit aims to outline initiatives to limit global warming and prevent global damage caused by climate change. The Conference of the Parties (COP), is held annually, with the Presidency rotating between the five recognised UN regions. This year, Azerbaijan has been selected as the Presidency of the 29th Conference of the Parties (COP29), to be hosted in Baku this November. Azerbaijan has a strong track record of hosting international events and has chosen Baku Stadium as the venue for COP29. To deliver a process that is transparent, impartial and inclusive, the COP29 Presidency has developed a plan based on two mutually reinforcing pillars to enhance ambition and enable action.
