Report co-authored by Azerbaijan presented at COP31

The “Belém Mission to 1.5°C” report, jointly prepared by Azerbaijan, Brazil, Türkiye and Australia, has been presented to the public at COP31 in Antalya, Türkiye.

TodayPress TV reports that the report aims to support countries in implementing their climate commitments and national adaptation plans under the Paris Agreement, with the goal of limiting global temperature rise to 1.5°C.

The report was developed through cooperation between Azerbaijan, Brazil, Türkiye and Australia under a mandate given to the COP29, COP30 and COP31 presidencies during COP30, held in Brazil last year.

During its preparation, extensive consultations were held throughout 2026 with countries, international organisations, the private sector and other stakeholders. These consultations took place in numerous countries around the world, including Azerbaijan (Baku and Shamakhi). In addition, 148 written submissions from various countries and organisations were reviewed.

The report outlines existing solutions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, strengthen resilience to the impacts of climate change and create new economic opportunities in sectors such as energy, industry, agriculture, forests, oceans, healthcare and urban development.

The report’s official presentation will take place at a high-level event in Antalya on November 16, as part of COP31.
