Climate Change Expert Group

The CCXG organises regular global forums and other events that bring together climate negotiators and experts from a range of developed and developing countries to engage constructively on key topics in the international climate negotiations. The CCXG also develops impartial technical analyses to inform discussions among countries on relevant topics in the international climate negotiations.

Over the years, CCXG global forums have provided a valued informal convening space for countries to discuss key issues in the international climate negotiations. These exchanges and the technical analysis prepared by the CCXG have helped to inform discussions among countries and shape decisions adopted at UN climate change conferences (Conference of the Parties (COP). 

"The CCXG has been for many years a source of highly influential analysis and debate on key topics of the climate change negotiations. The urgency of making progress in the global response to climate change makes this contribution even more relevant and necessary."

“I have seen first-hand the invaluable role CCXG plays in advancing understanding of complex climate negotiations, fostering trust and shared ambition. At a time when the climate crisis urgently demands stronger multilateral cooperation, spaces for partnership and open dialogue - such as those provided by CCXG - are more essential than ever.”
