Kigali declaration: Climate science for a sustainable future for all
The Kegali calls for urgent and transformative actions by the global community and decision-makers; by the climate science community, especially WCRP and its partners around the world; and public and private sector agencies and funders. In addition to the call for action, the Declaration includes a Science Supplement that provides a synthesis of the main scientific outcomes of the conference, which will be used by WCRP and the international community to guide future research efforts.
The Declaration specifically calls on three audiences:
- The global community to urgently act now to address climate change;
- The climate science community to accelerate and amplify the relevance, impact and benefit of its research for science and society, enabling transformative actions;
- On agencies, governments and the private sector to substantially increase their multilateral, accessible and equitable investment in the development of actionable climate information, and the implementation of climate adaptation options and loss and damage assessments founded on climate science.
