During the session on enhancing climate resilience, Al Muhairi highlighted the UAE’s practical approach to climate policies, showcased during its hosting of COP28.

She emphasised the role of parliamentarians in legislative support, oversight, and community engagement to bolster local adaptation strategies.

Speaking on increasing ambitions for climate mitigation, Al Suwaidi underscored the importance of setting clear targets for methane reduction and energy transition.

She referenced the UAE’s clean energy projects, like Masdar and Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park, as examples of climate technology leadership.
