Professor Ingilab Ahmadov, Khazar University

Dear Professor Ingilab,

Thank you for jointly hosting the COP29 side event Civil Society Climate Action: Collaboration to Support Vulnerable People on 14 November.

I am so delighted that our conference helped instigate an insightful discussion that urged greater attention to the perspective of climate vulnerable people, crucial to accelerating global climate actions.

I believe we succeeded in achieving this objective because we organized this event with you, an important institution in Azerbaijan that presided the COP this year.

I sincerely hope the Asian Development Bank Institute can continue collaboration with you to promote regional knowledge sharing and capacity building to help advance sustainable transition for all.

Yours sincerely,
Tetsushi Sonobe
CEO and Dean Asian Development Bank Institute
