PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Azerbaijan: Climate Change Convention (6 February 2024)

Climate change remains an area of utmost importance to this government and is a central focus of our diplomatic relations on a daily basis.

Our senior representation on climate and environment has grown significantly since the creation of the FCDO, and expanded further since the UK's COP Presidency including two dedicated directors leading on climate and environment, and on energy security respectively.

Since 2011 we have directly supported over 100 million people in coping with the effects of climate change, provided just under 70 million people with improved access to clean energy, and reduced or avoided greenhouse gas emissions by 86 million tonnes.
