Information for participants

The Conference of the Parties serving as the meeting of the Parties to the Paris Agreement, decided in Decision 3/CMA.5 that at least two dialogues shall be held each year as part of the work programme, with one to be held prior to the first regular sessions of the subsidiary bodies, starting with their sixtieth sessions (June 2024), and one prior to the second regular sessions of the subsidiary bodies, starting with their sixty-first sessions (November 2024), and that such dialogues should be conducted in hybrid format to allow both in-person and virtual participation. 

The Second Dialogue under the United Arab Emirates Just Transition Work Programme (Decision 3/CMA.5) took place 2-3 October, 2024 at Maritim Jolie Ville Resort in Naama Bay, Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt, on “Ensuring support for people-centric and equitable just transition pathways with a focus on the whole-of-society approach and the workforce." 

The specific areas of focus were:
1. Approaches for empowering all actors and segments of the society for a fair and inclusive workforce transition to meet Paris Agreement goals;
2. Unpacking the full range of means of implementation (Finance, Technology and Capacity Building) for a just transition of the work force, exploring current approaches, opportunities and gaps; and
3. International cooperation and partnerships for people-centric and equitable just transitions.
