Meetings

Durban Climate Change Conference - November/December 2011

The United Nations Climate Change Conference, Durban 2011, delivered a breakthrough on the international community's response to climate change. In the second largest meeting of its kind, the negotiations advanced, in a balanced fashion, the implementation of the Convention and the Kyoto Protocol, the Bali Action Plan, and the Cancun Agreements. The outcomes included a decision by Parties to adopt a universal legal agreement on climate change as soon as possible, and no later than 2015. The President of COP17/CMP7 Maite Nkoana-Mashabane said: "What we have achieved in Durban will play a central role in saving tomorrow, today."

The Daily Programme is the official UNFCCC guide to each day's official meetings, side events and press briefings. It also provides an overview of the status of the previous day's negotiations. Hard copies will be available from the Documents Distribution area each morning before the start of the day's meetings. The web version will contain links to the documents listed under each agenda item, thus serving as a fast locator of the official documents needed for the day's meetings.
