COP26 Science Partnership for Net Zero

Tender description

The UK COP Presidency is launching a new global science partnership of countries to turn climate commitments into science-based and citizen-focused action. The partnership will deep-dive on specific shared net-zero challenges by deploying a novel combination of academic collaboration, local and indigenous knowledge, and robust citizen engagement models. The project will provide new insights on net-zero solutions, to inform LTS, NDCs and Net-Zero strategies ahead of COP27. BEIS intends to procure international delivery partners to provide strategic direction and overall project management to coordinate the global academic collaboration, develop and deliver stakeholder engagement models, engage directly with partner governments and deliver public communication. By the end of the COP presidency the aim is to support strategy development in partner countries and have established a framework to exist beyond COP27 to support ongoing development of strategies to deliver a Net-Zero future.
