COP21 has been a resounding success; all 196 Parties to the UN Convention on Climate Change have committed to take concrete steps toward decarbonizing the global economy and increasing resilience to a changing climate. All eyes are now turning to the November 2016 COP22 to see whether declarations of intent translate into tangible progress on the ground.

This Energy Breakfast Roundtable will look at last year’s developments in terms of global climate action, discuss the different steps for a full implementation of the Paris agreement and identify reasonable expectations for the COP22 Marrakech Conference. The four expert presentations will be followed by a Q&A session under the Chatham House rule.

• H.E Aziz Mekouar, Ambassador for Multilateral Negotiations, COP22 Presidency, Senior Fellow OCP PC (tbc)
• Carole Mathieu, Researcher at the Ifri Center for Energy, Author of the Ifri-OCP PC Research Paper “De la COP21 à la COP22: comment gagner le combat climatique?” (forthcoming)
