Following the successful launch of the Weather Kids campaign last April that reached millions of viewers worldwide and called on every parent’s commitment to secure a healthy planet for the next generation, UNDP Geneva is organizing an interactive event to discuss the findings of UNDP’s newest global climate survey and reflect on potential paths of response.

Join us at the "Peoples’ Climate Vote: What does the world want in terms of climate action?” on June 27, 2024, at 4pm CET at the World Meteorological Organization headquarters in Geneva. 

UNDP’s People’s Climate Vote is the world's largest public opinion survey on climate change: More than 75,000 people speaking 87 different languages across 77 countries were asked 15 questions on climate change for the survey.

Beyond unpacking the survey’s results, this event will also try to answer the following question: How can citizens’ aspirations translate to ambitious climate policies that can get us closer to keeping the 1.5° goal alive? To explore climate policies which have helped move the needle in fulfilling the promise of the Paris Agreement, three case studies of national climate policies from developed and developing countries will kick off a conversation with the floor to better understand how climate policies can turn aspirations into action. 

The results of this conversation will be the foundation for a climate event series to promote a narrative of hope while echoing the UN Secretary General’s global campaign to advocate for accelerated ambition to keep the 1.5° goal alive.
