On October 23rd-24th 2018 the incoming Polish Presidency organized the
preparatory meeting in advance of COP 24. 38 delegations were present,
with 20 represented on a ministerial level.

This summary note was prepared under the authority of the incoming
Polish Presidency. We tried to capture the discussions, which took place at
the pre-COP in the most accurate way. Information contained therein
should however be treated as non-exhaustive. It does not prejudge any
positions or the final outcome of the negotiations. The summaries from the
break-out discussion groups are attached to this note as presented to the
Ministers and Ambassadors in the final plenary. These summaries were
prepared under the authority of the incoming Polish Presidency with
support from the co-facilitators of each topic.
