2015 in Paris, France, during the Twenty-first session of the
Conference of the Parties (COP21).

by appreciating its links with sustainable development.
In this regard, we hope to link climate change with key development
challenges, like poverty alleviation, agriculture, gender, health,
education, economic growth, urbanization and migrations, governance
among others.
