On the margins of the 79th UN General Assembly in New York City, endorsers of the Coalition for High Ambition Multi-level Partnerships (CHAMP) and their partners met at the first CHAMP High Level Political Dialogue, under the leadership of the COP28 Presidency and Bloomberg Philanthropies. Participants reflected on shared priorities and experiences in strengthening multilevel partnership in the context of designing their enhanced NDCs and associated plans for investment and implementation. Two new Parties also announced their endorsement of CHAMP — Finland and the United Kingdom — bringing the total number of endorsers up to 74, representing 34% of the global population, 61% of global GDP, and 36% of global emissions.
These developments demonstrate that Parties to the UNFCCC are increasingly searching for solutions and partnerships that can help them turn pledges into action on the ground - and that CHAMP is such a solution.
