The conference is hosted by the Rwanda Environment Management Authority (REMA) on behalf of the Government of Rwanda and seeks to promote strong engagement with research communities, stakeholders and practitioners from Rwanda and the broader African region.
This once-in-a-decade conference brings together the climate, environment, and related communities to discuss the latest developments in climate science and explore the transformative actions urgently needed to ensure a sustainable future. The outcome of all conference sessions will culminate with the “Kigali Declaration” – a conference statement that will be submitted to the 28th Conference of the Parties (COP28) taking place in the United Arab Emirates immediately after the Conference.
