UN Climate Change Conference (COP29)
Federal Councillor Albert Rösti represented Switzerland at the 29th UN Climate Change Conference (COP29) in Baku, Azerbaijan on 21 and 22 November. At the conference, Switzerland advocated a broadening of funding, particularly from countries with high CO2 emissions. The aim is to mobilise funds for the countries most in need, helping them to cope with the damage caused by climate change. All countries should contribute to this to the best of their ability.
