International advocacy work for climate protection

Description:

Partners: CAN-Europe, Agree.net, WWF, Greenpeace, FoE, T&E and other international organisations

Type: Lobby

Goal: Follow up and monitor the implementation of the European Union\'s internal and external climate change negotiations. Influence the related instruments in order to fully incorporate climate protection issues and goals into the related EU policies and to be able to fulfill European and national targets in the framework of EU and UNFCCC process. 

Target groups: National and European decision-makers, MEPs, businesses, expert and advisory groups

Description: The EU historically has been playing a leading role in international climate negotiations.  We strongly believe that European Community should keep its global leadership role and we would like to ensure that Hungary supports these efforts the best possible way.  Also, this position has to be backed by strong internal climate policy and ambitious target setting.
We create and publish position papers, articles and we organise expert forums in order to formulate and disseminate expert opinions and results towards decision makers. We take part in the work of international umbrella-organisations such as CAN or Agreenet and work with NGOs and experts on the bilateral basis to formulate documents and joint actions.
