Project Meeting in Austria, October 2026

This official UNFCCC special event, organised by the UNFCCC Transparency Division under the “Together for Transparency” initiative, explores how science can inform the Enhanced Transparency Framework (ETF) and the Global Stocktake (GST). It provides insights into state-of-the-art research on global and national transformation pathways in line with net-zero targets and the Paris Agreement, including perspectives on equity and climate finance, that can help Parties better align their ambition and efforts, both individually and collectively.

This NEWPATHWAYS dinner at COP31, “From Pathways to Implementation: Financing an Equitable Transition Away from Fossil Fuels”, explores how global transition pathways can inform equitable national transitions and the financing needed to deliver them. It connects the scientific evidence on what the transition requires with the policy and financing challenges of implementation in different national contexts, drawing on emerging analysis from the Science Panel for the Global Energy Transition (SPGET), NEWPATHWAYS research on national pathways and climate finance, and emerging research on equitable transitions away from fossil fuels (ETAFFs).
