With less than 48 hours to the conclusion of the 28th meeting of the United Nations Conference of the Parties ( COP28), no fewer than 152 countries have committed to the COP28 UAE Declaration on Agriculture, Food Systems and Climate Action in Dubai.
This was disclosed Sunday by the COP28 Food Systems Lead, Mariam Almheiri, during a high-level session focused on the implementation of the COP28 UAE Declaration on Agriculture, Food Systems and Climate Action.

“As you know, we kickstarted 10 days ago, and I was on this stage to announce that we have 134 countries signatories on the UAE declaration on food systems, agriculture and climate. Do you wanna know where it is today? It is 152,” she said.
The COP28 official described the endorsement as a “historic moment” for food systems and Agriculture at the ongoing climate change summit in Dubai.
This, she said, is because they have really taken the time to listen, to connect the dots and to get the political will to mobilise financing and even provide tools.
