WCN 2025 stands for World Climate and Nature 2025, a global initiative spearheaded by the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) to enhance climate action and protect nature. Its primary goal is to encourage countries to integrate climate change adaptation and mitigation measures into their national development plans by 2025, thereby fostering a sustainable future.
WCN 2025 holds particular significance because it aligns with crucial international agreements such as the Paris Agreement on climate change and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). By mainstreaming climate action into national planning processes, WCN 2025 supports countries in meeting their commitments under these agreements, contributing to a more resilient and environmentally conscious world.
