Nepal's Delegation Sets Ambitious Agenda at UN Climate Summit

By Elena VossJuly 3, 20266 min read

Led by the Minister for Forests and Environment, Nepal presents a comprehensive mountain nations climate framework.

Nepal's delegation arrived at the UN Climate Summit with an unprecedented proposal: a Mountain Nations Climate Compact that would establish binding commitments for high-altitude countries facing disproportionate climate impacts.

The framework draws on Nepal's experience as chair of the Least Developed Countries group and its pioneering work on loss and damage financing mechanisms.
