The UN is seeking to establish partnerships in a number of areas, including sustainability, for the COP23 climate conference.

The climate change secretariat is inviting stakeholders, including the private sector, in support of the upcoming conference to be held in Bonn, Germany, from 6th to 17th November 2017.
