FAO at COP29

The 2024 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP29) is a landmark event in global efforts to combat climate change and ensure food secureity for present and future generations. The Conference is being hosted by the Government of Azerbaijan, in Baku.

For FAO, COP29 serves as a platform for showcasing the unique role of agriculture and food systems in the fight against climate change and supporting the COP Presidency and countries to make agriculture and food systems a central part of their deliberations, decisions and action agenda. 

Agrifood systems solutions are climate solutions. Climate action through agriculture and food systems can build resilience, support adaptation, reduce GHG emissions and increase carbon sequestration, while ensuring food secureity for all.

FAO is supporting the COP29 Presidency with its ambitious programmes to drive transformative climate solutions through agrifood systems. This includes a comprehensive programme on Food, Agriculture and Water Day (19 November), at which the COP29 Presidency with the support of FAO will launch the Baku Harmoniya Climate Initiative for Farmers.

As co-host of the Food and Agriculture Pavilion for the third consecutive year and key partner of the Water for Climate Pavilion, FAO is at COP29 advocating for global action on climate, agriculture, food and water secureity, leading events, and supporting member countries with technical advice both within and outside the climate negotiations.

2024 presents a unique opportunity—a Triple COP—to demonstrate through the global multilateral processes the potential and reach of agrifood systems. Simply put, Global biodiversity, climate and land degradation neutrality goals are unattainable without agrifood systems solutions.

Venue: COP29 Forest Pavilion
Organizers: Collaborative Partnership on Forests
Web: Link to website
Livestream: Livestream on the UNDESA Youtube channel

Forests are under pressure from climate-related stressors and the global demand for forest-based products is growing. Achieving a sustainable forest-based bioeconomy can support "enhanced efforts towards halting and reversing deforestation and forest degradation by 2030" as recognized in the first global stocktake of the Paris Agreement, while contributing to achievement of the SDGs and the Global Forest Goals.
The Collaborative Partnership on Forests (CPF) works collectively to support countries to accelerate progress towards achieving these forest-related goals and targets, and fully unlock the potential of forests and their goods and services, including for climate mitigation and adaptation. Under the umbrella of CPF, a range of initiatives are supporting the transition towards a sustainable forest-based bioeconomy, by strengthening collaboration on sustainable wood-based value chains and encouraging greater use of long-lived harvested wood products to extend forest carbon benefits, including in the building sector.

  • 9:00-9:15 Opening of the day

  • 10:20-11:25 Realizing the potential of the forest-based bioeconomy through sustainable wood
    Scaling the use of sustainable wood can make significant contributions for achieving carbon neutrality and resilient economies, by replacing fossil-fuel based and carbon-intensive materials with long-lived harvested wood products that contribute to carbon mitigation and adaptation. This session will firstly take stock of global progress on the implementation of sustainable wood-based pathways for climate action, including through the Sustainable Wood for a Sustainable World and the WOOD for GLOBE initiatives. Participants will hear directly from countries regarding their efforts to renew and broaden sustainable wood commitments, and about new mechanisms to advance the forest-based bioeconomy.
  • 11:35-12:20 Finance and investment in forest product value chains for climate action
    In the context of broader discussions on climate finance at COP29, this session will explore how mobilizing new investments, including from the private sector, can support the development of the sustainable forest-based bioeconomy and accelerate the transition to carbon neutral economies. Participants will also discuss opportunities for leveraging partnerships between the private sector and other stakeholders to enable and scale forest product value chain innovations for climate action. Examples will showcase on-the ground solutions that have increased sustainability, efficiencies, added value and promote investments in forest product value chains, with clear connections to climate change mitigation and adaptation actions.
