Daring Cities 2025 helping to build stronger national climate plans through multilevel action

2025 becomes a critical year for action in the lead up to UNFCCC COP30 in Belém, Brazil. With the submission and implementation of the next round of NDCs soon upon us, national governments need to build capacity to implement multilevel, integrated and holistic NDCs 3.0 in 2026 and onwards. The inconclusiveness of the COP29 agenda in Baku increases the relevance of the subsequent UNFCCC Bonn Climate Conference in June 2025. While normally a more technical meeting, this conference will be of more value to subnational leaders than usual because negotiations agenda items that were intended to take place in Baku will now take place in Bonn. The Daring Cities 2025 Bonn Dialogues in Bonn (16 – 18 June 2025) will bring together local and regional leaders during these critical talks. Daring Cities 2025 aims to meaningfully connect local efforts to combat the climate emergency with the global climate negotiations by showcasing the need for effective multilevel governance.
