As outlined by the Co-Chairs in their informal note on the second session,  the special event provided observers with an opportunity to present and exchange views contributing to the substantive discussions under the ADP. The exchange covered both workstreams being carried out under the ADP – workstream 1 on the 2015 agreement and workstream 2 on pre-2020 ambition.  The special event was open to all Parties and observers and allowed for virtual participation through social media (Twitter).
