This move underscores the global nature of the climate challenge and the importance of collaboration and knowledge-sharing in finding solutions. As the consequences of climate change continue to unfold, from heatwaves to migration, it's clear that a coordinated and evidence-led approach is needed to mitigate its impacts and ensure a sustainable future for all.
