Doconomy at COP27

Our opinion pieces about COP27

The Loss and Damage Debate at COP27 It’s not about promises Good cop, bad cop? At half-time the jury is still out on COP27 COP: Little reason to celebrate

Doconomy attended the 27th Conference of the Parties of the UNFCCC (COP27) to share leading perspectives, focusing on climate inclusion and driving climate action globally.

Science has established, beyond doubt, that the window for action is closing rapidly. In November, Egypt hosted COP27 in Sharm El-Sheikh, with a view to building on previous successes and paving the way for future ambition. There was a golden opportunity for all stakeholders to rise to the occasion and tackle effectively the global challenge of climate change facilitated by Egypt on the African continent.

Selected by the United Nations, Doconomy presented Global Climate Inclusion 2.0 at UN Climate Change Pavilion and Democratizing Climate Action at the Climate Action Hub. We also partnered with Business Sweden where we presented and collaborated with other Swedish companies. The overall theme was Inclusion for action.

Democratizing Climate Action Global Climate Inclusion 2.0

Doconomy opened Finance Day by presenting how to use global collaboration for innovation to combine existing efficient structures with the passion of the grassroot movement to put an everyday price on carbon and educate the many. The Climate Action Hub were organised by the UN Climate Change secretariat and while the rest of the COP is dominated by Party negotiations, the Action Hub were a place for non-Party Stakeholders to showcase their efforts in tackling the climate crisis.

Doconomy presented how to use global collaboration for innovation to combine existing efficient structures. The UN Climate Change Pavilion united government and non-Party stakeholders, fostering collaboration among them to deliver greenhouse gas emission reductions and help ensure a transition to a net-zero economy that alleviates poverty and helps secure a sustainable future.

After one week of negotiations, the jury is still out on whether this will be a Good Cop, like COP26 last year and COP21 that gave us the Paris Agreement, or a Bad Cop, like the 25^th in Madrid or the COP15 in “Hopenhagen”.
