Under2 Coalition

Aug 31, 2020

The Under2 Coalition is a global community of state and regional governments committed to ambitious climate action in line with the Paris Agreement.

The coalition brings together more than 220 governments who represent over 1.3 billion people and 43% of the global economy. These governments include signatories to the Under2 Memorandum of Understanding, as well as national endorsers and other supporters. There are 118 individual states and regions who have signed the Under2 MOU and are currently active members of the Under2 Coalition.

The coalition follows three “workstreams” to complete their goal:
Pathways
Providing technical support and resources to assist governments to develop long-term emissions reduction plans.

Policy Action
Sharing policy innovation and success to accelerate the transition to a net-zero economy.

Transparency
Increasing accountability by encouraging state and regional governments to disclose their climate targets, action and progress.
