October Edition – COP30 Webinar, New UN Report & 2026 Workshops

Tanner Glenn <tannerg...@gmail.com>: Oct 03 11:39AM -0400 Dear Friends,   Jamie Cummings and Felix Dodds will be running their usual webinar for those attending COPs for the first time or wanting to have a refresher on the *29th of October, 9-11 am (EDT) *– the link to register is here. <https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Qo4qbxz0TymPx4AADFuP3Q>   The webinar will cover:   - History of climate change - How the UNFCCC prepares - COP29 Outcomes and Legacies - Why attend – stakeholder engagement case study of a campaign and YOUNGO - Negotiating Groups and key people - COP 30 – Presidential team - UNFCCC Outcomes from Bonn preparatory sessions 2025 - COP 30 – What are the issues? - COP 30 – Logistics as we know it - including the Blue and Green Zones - Beyond the Negotiations - Resources available and dates for 2025 and 2026   ------------------------------   The proposed October set of workshops based on the book *Environmental Lobbying at the United Nations* <https://www.routledge.com/Environmental-Lobbying-at-the-United-Nations-A-Guide-to-Protecting-Our-Planet/Dodds-Spence/p/book/9781032597461> will now take place on the *mornings of January 26th and February 2nd, 2026* (New York time). We did this based on feedback from those engaged in COP and UNEA in November and December.   More details will be provided in future newsletters, including registration information and payment details. The registration cost will be $589 for individuals from NGOs in developed countries and $240 for those from developing countries. Email me at fe...@felixdodds.net with the subject line – *Capacity Building Workshop January * – if you have any other questions.   If your organization — or a group of organizations — would like me to run a private version, please contact me. The workshops will cover the contents of my book, which you can view here. <https://felixdodds.us16.list-manage.com/track/click?u=64b194440ceea1f72a0f2e161&id=ea464f7113&e=c7dba9e7b3>   ------------------------------   A new report, edited by *Felix Dodds and Chris Spence* and published by *Stakeholder Forum for a Sustainable Future, *has been released: *“UN80: Reform of the Multilateral Environmental Agreements: Around the Triple Planetary Crisis of Pollution, Biodiversity and Climate Change”.* <https://stakeholderforum.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/SDG-2030-Series-Report-No-5-Clustering-MEAs.pdf> The report has a reflection by former UNEP Executive Director *Liz Dowdeswell.*   The approach is to build on the work of clustering environmental conventions started by *Klaus Toepfer* when he was the Executive Director of UNEP and continued with success by *Achim Steiner* when he was Executive Director of UNEP creating the super COP on chemicals and waste, which provides a proof of concept that we could rally around for the other parts of the Triple Planetary Crisis of climate change, biodiversity, and chemicals and waste. Achim Steiner went on, as you know, to initiate the process of clustering the biodiversity convention, which his successor did not continue.   With the UN 80 Initiative suggesting that the UNFCCC be placed under UNEP, the possibility of revisiting the idea of clustering MEAs has been reopened.   The report collects articles that appeared in the Inter Press Service over the past two months:   1.

Rather than accelerating toward a 1.5-degree world, we must begin to confront what a 2–2.5-degree world will look like — and adjust policies accordingly.   COP30 and UNEA 7 offer critical opportunities to consolidate, regroup, and push for genuine progress on the SDGs, climate action, and biodiversity.   Warmest regards, Felix Dodds

It is also part of the basic fabric of inclusion, the chance for communities to function with dignity rather than fracture under strain. Broader financing for mental health is not a luxury, but a necessity in a region where disasters, chronic stress, and underfunded systems erode both productivity and dignity.       What unites these disparate voices, health specialists, safeguards officers, statisticians, is the conviction that policy choices do not just build roads and economies, they shape human destiny.     [Image]   Development Topics   Browse other topics to read more development updates and insights.   Explore<https://adb.musvc3.net/e/tr?q=9%3dSdJcO%26J%3dH%26J%3dQaK%26K%3dPaQfU%26S%3dyPEN0_Nl1g_YV_Phyk_ZW_Nl1g_Xa03K2Q.r0w.M9C_Cyjv_MnrNxFzRz_Phyk_ZWP0Nz9D_Phyk_aWQEK_0KFPtA_Cyjv_Nl474JBL_Cyjv_MdBP8_Kv04S4_Nl1g_YYLvSDJvPEC987MxO_Cyjv_MdBP8_ArIA9zC9_Phyk_aUXUZL_Nl1g_XQSAI_xM5PzLA_Nl1g_YYQvLE03K2Q%26u%3dIFQC9N.LvP%264Q%3dHXQhQ%26PD%3dZQXPYQfNhMYQZI%26D%3dzdtaUCKdPBLAOALdMeHcRgOeMhrf7v9rRbPfQ0saRhOWLZQAS0w7MBQ8yYQALhMeT9vX&mupckp=mupAtu4m8OiX0wt> [Image]   Audio blogs   Visit our Audio Hub to access ADB blogs in its audio format.   Listen<https://adb.musvc3.net/e/tr?q=8%3dPdHbL%26J%3dF%26I%3dNaI%26J%3dMaOeR%26S%3dwOBN8_Mi1e_XS_Pfxh_ZU_Mi1e_WX01JyQ.p9t.M7B_0yhu_JnpPvG4-CC0_7vkx_HkCR2_N7S78w_Pfxh_aSHsG1P8_Pfxh_ZKPBK_20vG0H_0yhu_Kl30EQ10BRtMtJ4BA_Pfxh_ZKPBK_r65NpDyL_7vkx_HiJhGZ_0yhu_Jd0O5_A4IBC3O_0yhu_Kl808RqG7E8%269%3d5S8Qua.30B%26G8%3dVJdOe%26BQ%3dGeJcFeRaOaKdGW%26z%3dbq9s0OcMgr9KdGaJYNcJas8RhGZPhObMYFAvfKdN6s9pBuWI0uVOCJYMdIcMeHeuht9O&mupckp=mupAtu4m8OiX0wt>   Was this message forwarded to you?   Sign up here <https://adb.musvc3.net/e/tr?q=A%3d8WJe4%26C%3dH%26L%3d6TK%26M%3d5TQh0%26L%3dyRtG0_PQtg_aA_Ih1P_SW_PQtg_ZF27A0R.09f63GnB0.NrFACcKzMn.FBRlF6I.cF4_PQtg_ZF_Ih1P_TWSrC_9ySq_JlhKANs_Ih1P_SLaA_Ih1P_SLZF_Ih1P_SLZF2u0.mL0TcU.5Ct_Ih1P_SLZF6_9ySq_Ic2gAP_rrjx_2VJnq_Ih1P_SLaDY_9ySq_Ic2VJBK4M0G_Ih1P_SLZ5SMq_rrjx_2VIc35K_PQtg_Z5SLZ6j_9ySq_Ic2VJBI8T_PQtg_Z5SLZ6k_9y Sq_Ic2VJ9a2rBH1TCM_Ih1P_SLZ5SMz_rrjx_2VIc352w7nC_udQj_6N_pkVc_zZ_udQj_5SZ6rtq.ugo.mBj_5OmS_EDzr5kC_udQj_5SqEe6aBloc_BTfN_MI8r7_v2sBfr_pkVc_1XdqZ-vo2eC_udQj_5IsDp_zcxl8k_BTfN_MG1cGvycDwrp_7dvjEs_5OmS_E4Ewz_aup3Y3j1_pkVc_1Xf2nLB_5OmS_E4Ewz_a9q7c8w_5OmS_FBwr3zS_eym1v_rrjx_2VIc2W8_PQtg_Z5SLadkEv9aN.qrr_9ySq_Ic2VIdlo_9ySq_Ic2VJBDyNBD_Ih1P_SLZ5SMyv_Ih1P_SLZ5Tu5MzN4DzLCKyM7J_Ih1P_SLZ5SMm_rrjx_2VIc35O5L5S0M1uBJbN0D5zfJW5fdZQ6D3xCGdv8pcOBHYLBrYMfL5ShDav8M7x0L8P8o4N0sa_9ySq_Ic2W4Sp42N_rrjx_2VJlmL7itLKK8pz60NA_PQtg_Z65rRa_Ih1P_TUh5_Ih1P_SLeCaI_PQtg_Z5XTPe36PrF4Co_Ih1P_UQ9d3.6Pg_Ih1P_SLeC4Mb7aIZ7Ssh8UNb1Wv0caOBdarAdZOhf_Ih1P_SLeCZKg55M0bUHA2Utc8YKffZIC5StD35Mb0_Ih1P_SLeCa_9ySq_Ic7dQ_PQtg_Z5XTd3YMe8WQh3TOg9XQf1_Ih1P_SLeCv5InFDL_rrjx_2VNkTxWNbhqQbTufePanbyShevHFch2GOEiWdxlQICpGO0ZULARSMeRUMdZQICRGO0a6axKXM0ZQIBWwIA6GTxWNbdZQICu3IA6Wfr_9ySq_Ic3e_9ySq_Ic3e_9ySq_Ic7dQ_PQtg_Z5XT_PQtg_Z5XT_PQtg_Z5XT_PQtg_Z6Ju9t2_9ySq_JlwNY8LxrQu7KTc49JKDWmPrUc2Sa_PQtg_Z5SWILCeughr4TbA08N_9ySq_Ic3e_9ySq_Idr60CrMvB_rrjx_3 eQ_PQtg_Z6LAK_sFBPc6_9ySq_Jlm2zJuG_9ySq_IduK4_Ke5zSm_Ih1P_TULeN0JeKACr33MgJ_9ySq_IduK4_AaD79i85_PQtg_aDSQZ5_Ih1P_SMStD_tMnKvLt_Ih1P_TUQeGA0lFxQ%26d%3dDBQv4J.LeK%26zQ%3d1SMh0%26K0%3dZ0SLY0aJh6TMZ2%269%3dJ0bYuZ7SL923Nec5I082uC0SOC8aP9eWv0aaPAaZsZdTNd6TwhdYNg56IgdSrbdV&mupckp=mupAtu4m8OiX0wt> and join our mailing list.       INTERNAL.
