COP29, which took place in November 2024 in Baku, Azerbaijan, was a pivotal event in addressing the global climate crisis. The summit focused on the urgent need for enhanced climate action, aiming to keep global warming below 1.5°C in line with the Paris Agreement. Key topics included strengthening Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), promoting the phase-out of fossil fuels, and scaling up renewable energy efforts. Notably, the conference advanced the operationalization of the Loss and Damage Fund, which provides support to the most vulnerable nations, particularly Small Island Developing States (SIDS) and Least Developed Countries (LDCs). COP29 also featured the launch of the Climate Finance Action Fund, a critical initiative seeking contributions from fossil fuel-producing nations to fund climate projects globally
