Celebrity Media Editor's Note: The 29th United Nations Climate Summit, known as the "Double Eleven" shopping festival (November 11) in China, is being held in Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan. To this end, we are combining and reissuing the two press releases sent to us for reporting.

The IPU, in partnership with the Milli Majlis of Azerbaijan, will convene parliamentarians from around the world for a Parliamentary Meeting on 16 and 17 November 2024 in Baku, Azerbaijan during COP29, the annual UN Climate Change Conference.

The programme will unite parliamentarians and experts to address critical climate issues, with a focus on the role of parliaments in climate finance, adaptation, technology, health, food security and human mobility.

A key emphasis will be to encourage parliamentarians to push their governments to be more ambitious in their national climate commitments, known as Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) to ensure that countries meet their obligations under the Paris Agreement.

With the 2025 deadline for NDC submission fast approaching, the meeting represents a critical window of opportunity for parliaments to shape their countries’ climate futures.

For the second consecutive year, the IPU meeting will be held on the site of the COP conference, at the heart of the process and negotiations.

The IPU has long advocated for the integration of parliaments into UN climate processes, underlining the critical role they can play in tackling climate change through effective legislation, green budgeting and oversight of government promises.

Since the Copenhagen COP in 2009, the IPU has brought together MPs at the annual UN climate meetings to foster global coordination, share good practices and provide an overall parliamentary perspective to the talks.

In addition to its convening power, the IPU helps parliaments make progress on the Paris Agreement as well as other climate treaties, accelerate decarbonization and reduce the carbon footprint of parliaments themselves through its research and tools. The recent launch of the IPU’s climate campaign Parliaments for the Planet underscores its commitment to driving meaningful parliamentary climate action. 

The IPU is the global organization of national parliaments. It was founded more than 130 years ago as the first multilateral political organization in the world, encouraging cooperation and dialogue between all nations. Today, the IPU comprises 181 national Member Parliaments and 15 regional parliamentary bodies. It promotes democracy and helps parliaments develop into stronger, younger, greener, more gender-balanced and more innovative institutions. It also defends the human rights of parliamentarians through a dedicated committee made up of MPs from around the world.
