RIYADH: The process of COP is unique, as “it is a must to create a safe political space shielded from whatever else is going on out there to do our jobs and deliver a world change”, UN Climate Change top official stated.

Speaking at COP27 held in Sharm El-Sheikh on Nov. 6, UN Climate Change Executive Secretary Simon Stiell said: “This is why I say today, a new era begins and we begin to do things differently.”

He also urged the idea of having women and girls “at the center of climate decision-making and action.”
