Leave no one behind – civil society participation in implementing Agenda 2030 and the Paris Agreement

With the Paris Agreement and the Agenda 2030 international climate policies have received a new global reference framework which has to be implemented on national and subnational level. Civil society is crucial here.
A just transition towards a fair and sustainable development model has to involve citizens and address people‘s needs and ideas.
In that context we would like to discuss the chances but also the challenges of this transformation process and how civil society organizations engage in this process.
