Data-driven climate action: Empowering the advocacy of civil society organisations

OnlineNov 5, 2024 | 3:00 PM - 4:30 PM

Description

Civil society organisations (CSOs) are a crucial link between citizens and governments to ensure that climate action is both effective and responsive to the needs of the public. Access to accurate climate change data and statistics is essential to help CSOs understand climate change trends and impacts in order to provide reliable information to the population. Data use in advocacy also cultivates a robust culture of data-driven decision-making within countries, helping to drive effective investment in climate action. This session will explore best practices for leveraging climate change data to advocate for better government action. The Partnership in Statistics for Development in the 21st Century (PARIS21) and CSO representatives will discuss lessons learned and how collaboration between CSOs and national statistics systems can promote data-driven climate action. This session will be livestreamed in English, French and Spanish.
