The results of the COP27 climate conference are mixed: a historic step towards climate justice was taken with the adoption of a fund for loss and damage, but climate protection is at a standstill.
Our comment on COP27: “Although the countries of the global South are the ones that have hardly contributed to climate change, they are the ones most affected by the climate catastrophe – this also applies to young people and future generations. Binding global rules are therefore needed that immediately hold those responsible for causing the crisis to account.” Annette Mokler, Development Policy and Program Coordination Peru and Western Sahara at terre des hommes schweiz
