Canadian Group of the Inter-Parliamentary Union (UIPU)

This webinar was the first in a series organized by the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU), the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) Secretariat and the Centre for International Sustainable Development Law. The goal was to build the capacity of parliamentarians and other key stakeholders in their response to climate change, and to promote knowledge-sharing on key topics in legislation and governance that arise in the implementation of the Paris Agreement.

The presenters explored topics like the meaning of compliance in international law as well as compliance within domestic climate change legislation. The role of the Paris Agreement Implementation and Compliance Committee, of the UNFCCC Secretariat in aiding implementation and supporting coordination, and the essential role of parliaments and parliamentarians were also discussed. The presentations were followed by a lively virtual Q amp; A session with participants.
