Climate talks: Just Transition, Transparency, and the Global Stocktake
How the transition away from fossil fuels features in the Just Transition Work Programme, transparency arrangements, and preparations for the second global stocktake. These discussions will help show whether governments are starting to translate broad commitments into national action.
Climate Finance, Investment, and Economic Constraints
Debates on climate finance, transition investment, fossil fuel subsidy reform, debt constraints, and investment barriers will be central to whether countries —particularly developing countries—have the fiscal space and support needed to move from commitment to implementation.
Trade, Cooperation, and Non-Market Approaches
How trade policy, international cooperation, and non-market approaches can support the transition, including through discussions linked to Article 6.8. Key questions include whether governments can reshape economic incentives in favour of clean energy and green commerce, while strengthening cooperation between fossil fuel-producing and consuming countries.
What happens in Bonn will help set the tone for what is achievable at COP 31 in Türkiye this November.
