COP24 Poland: Coalition Ministers and high-level representatives agreed to push forward an ambitious Action Programme at the 10th High Level Assembly. Message from the Secretariat

Last year we saw many important milestones put climate and clean air objectives at the top of the global agenda . 2019 promises to be the year that we turn this momentum into action.

The Climate and Clean Air Coalition looks forward to working together to achieve fast action and quick results through our many initiatives and collaborations. Here are our key priority actions for the year ahead:

Action Programme to Address the 1.5 C Challenge: We will assist and encourage countries that wish to increase their efforts to tackle climate change and air pollution in an integrated way through action to reduce short-lived climate pollutants.
High-level political leadership: We will organize regional dialogues, hosted by champion countries and partners, to increase engagement and help raise the ambition to tackle both climate change and air pollution using proven methodologies and policy measures.
Multiple benefits pathway framework: We will extend the techniques and processes pioneered by the Coalition to help countries develop effective short-lived climate pollutant mitigation strategies - identifying the quickest and most effective mitigation actions and finding ways to embed these across government programmes.

The Coalition Secretariat will keep you posted on our progress along the way, so stay tuned for updates!
