ABOUT THIS COMMITTEE
In 2024, the 29th Conference of Parties (COP) convenes in Baku, Azerbaijan, as part of the UNFCCC's ongoing efforts since 1995. The conference, guided by a roadmap to Mission 1.5ºC, aims at stabilizing greenhouse gas concentrations, with climate finance topping the agenda. This committee will also emphasize how they assess progress, brainstorm innovative financial contributions, and address climate justice, particularly in the global south. The overall objective of this committee is to be creative with ideas and concepts that delegates present while staying within the limits of the UNFCCC. Climate change is a highly debated topic with many facets that are often recurrent and facts that are used repeatedly, so we want new ideas and fresh perspectives.

Amanda Carvalho (she/her)
Amanda is a sophomore from Nairobi, Kenya, majoring in Economics with a double minor in Dramatic Art and Mathematics. She fell in love with Kenyan MUN in the 7th grade, and has not stopped participating since, from organizing international conferences to CIRA’s accessibility-oriented branch, moMUNtum. When she’s not in a theater production or sweating on a volleyball court, you’ll find her dancing to any music she can get her hands on! Her favorite pastimes include writing incoherent poetry, doing anything at the beach, and having picnics with her friends. She could not be more excited to contribute to UNCMUNC XV, and cannot wait to be enriched and inspired by conference delegates.
