Global InformationTalanoa Dialogue information
The Talanoa Dialogue was a process designed to help countries implement and enhance their Nationally Determined Contributions by 2020. The Dialogue was mandated by the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention for Climate Change to take stock of the collective global efforts to reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases, in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement, which is to limit the rise in average global temperature to 2°C (3.6°F) above pre-industrial levels, and to pursue efforts to limit the increase to 1.5°C (2.7°F).[1]
The Talanoa Dialogue was launched at COP 23 under the Presidency of the Republic of Fiji, and was a year-long process that culminated in political discussions at COP 24 in Katowice, Poland, where political leaders were to signal their commitment to increasing the ambition of their NDCs.[1][2]
The Talanoa Dialogue represented an opening up of the UN Climate Negotiations because non-state actors are able to actively participate and submit their ideas for how national governments can improve their emission reduction targets.[3]
