UNFCCC Climate Week 4 (CW4) – Implementation Forum

Date: 9-10 September 2026

Location: Baku, Azerbaijan

With a strong focus on climate action implementation, the forum will be open to a wide range of representatives from different stakeholder groups, from private sector, subnationals, civil society, academia and others to join policy makers in fruitful discussions on collaboration to escalate implementable solutions for ambitious climate action. 

The thematic focus of the events will be based on the six axes of the Global Climate Action Agenda ensuring alignment to the first GST outcomes, while also reflecting broader priorities relevant to implementation, including industrial decarbonization and access to finance.

The Implementation Forum is a key pillar of Climate Weeks, under which Parties and non-Party stakeholders can engage in identifying implementable solutions to accelerate action on the ground. Convening these discussions at the Climate Weeks helps localize the Action Agenda, highlighting region-specific initiatives while drawing on global expertise and supporting preparations towards the second GST.

CW4 will take place in parallel with Baku Climate Action Week which will bring together a range of activities focused on advancing climate action, including some events held jointly with CW4's Implementation Forum. Participants registered for either the CW4's Implementation Forum or Baku Climate Action Week will have access to both programmes.
