Hazar Denizi: Çevrenin Korunması İçin Bilim ve Bölgesel İşbirliği

Etkinlik hakkında

Since COP28, Azerbaijan has consistently brought the challenges facing the Caspian Sea into the global climate discussions through dedicated high-level events held at successive UN Climate Change Conferences. These events have provided an important platform for the five Caspian littoral countries and international partners to highlight the growing environmental challenges facing the Sea and to strengthen regional dialogue and cooperation. Building on this continuity, the proposed COP31 event would focus on the declining Caspian Sea level and its environmental and socio-economic implications, as well as broader environmental challenges affecting the Caspian, including biodiversity loss, pressures on marine and coastal ecosystems, and the increasing impacts of climate change. The event would bring together high-level representatives of all five Caspian littoral countries, and relevant international organizations. It would provide an opportunity to maintain the Caspian Sea high on the international climate agenda, demonstrate the shared commitment of the littoral countries, and promote coordinated and practical action to protect its unique environment.
