Annick Girardin, Minister of State for Development and Francophony, will visit Rabat from October 12 to 13 in order to represent France at the international forum on identifying Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDC) to climate change action.

This event, organized by Morocco, which will chair COP22, the European Commission, the United Nations Development Program and the United Nations Environment Program, will provide an opportunity to take stock of the overall impact of INDCs on the fight against climate disruption and to encourage those who have not yet submitted their contribution to do so.

With less than 50 days left before the opening of COP21, 149 countries, accounting for 87% of carbon emissions, have already submitted their contributions.
