The IPCC approved the Synthesis Report (SYR) for the Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) during the Panel's 58^th session held in Interlaken, Switzerland from 13 to 19 March 2023. The Summary for Policymakers (SPM) was released on 20 March 2023.

The AR6 SYR summarises the state of knowledge of climate change, its widespread impacts and risks, and climate change mitigation and adaptation. It integrates the main findings of AR6 based on contributions from the three Working Groups and the three Special Reports.

The special event will be co-chaired by Harry Vreuls, Chair of the SBSTA, and Hoesung Lee, Chair of the IPCC and it will be open to all participants of SB58, including Parties, observers and media, and will be webcasted.

The event aims to, in an interactive manner, bring together participants and IPCC experts to have a direct exchange on the report to enhance understanding on key findings contained in the SYR, including as they relate to the global stocktake.
