APA 1-3 Closing, Stacey Kimmig


Bonn, Germany (May 18, 2017) – Unfortunately no interventions by Constituencies could be delivered in the closing plenary of APA 1-3. In the intervention Stacey Kimmig would have delivered in the name of the Women and Gender Constituency, we urge developed country Parties that their current commitments are insufficient to meet the 1.5° goal. We furthermore expresses our deep concern with the decision for exclusion in upcoming roundtable discussions mandated under the APA. We reminded Parties that observers are representing rightsholders and have for many years provided critical inputs to effective climate action.
