About
The Glasgow-Sharm el-Sheikh work programme (GlaSS) on the Global Goal on Adaptation (GGA) was established at COP26. This decision was a successful outcome of COP26 and represents a significant step towards progressing the GGA – along with other adaptation matters – into concrete actions.
Little is known yet of the content and format for the work programme, which will hold the first of its official workshops in early June. At this webinar, experts will discuss how the Glasgow-Sharm-el Sheikh work programme on the Global Goal on Adaptation can be fair and inclusive.
