Event: Overview of Likely Outcomes from Doha COP18 – What to Expect in the Coming Years from Climate Negotiations

When the world’s climate change negotiators meet in Doha in Qatar this month, they will try to resolve the difficult issues that have stymied policy progress for years. They will also seek to determine the immediate future of the Kyoto Protocol and develop a framework for a new protocol, legal instrument or an agreed outcome by 2015. UNFCCC Executive Secretary Christiana Figueres outlined that the next steps on the climate change agenda include the decision by Parties on how the second commitment period is going to come into being, and firming up of the rules and technical details of quantified emissions reductions and possible new market-based mechanisms.

This presentation will examine the notable outcomes from Doha from the main negotiating tracks and conclude with a general outlook on where negotiations seem to be heading.
