The Conference of the Parties (COP) is the primary decision-making body of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). Since the Convention entered into force in 1994, COP has served as a forum where countries meet annually to assess progress, negotiate agreements, and develop strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. COP plays a central role in implementing major international climate agreements, including the Paris Agreement, which aims to limit global temperature rise and strengthen global responses to climate change. It provides a platform for countries to set targets, report on progress, and cooperate on issues such as mitigation, adaptation, and climate finance. A key area of debate within COP is the responsibility of developed countries to support developing states, particularly those most vulnerable to climate impacts. Today, COP remains a central forum for global climate governance, bringing together nearly all countries to negotiate solutions and coordinate action in response to the growing climate crisis.
