A critical opportunity is provided by COP26 in order to discuss the achievements since the Paris Agreement was signed in 2015 and to set concrete plans to reach the Paris Agreement targets.

The engagement of parliaments in annual COP meetings has long been supported by the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) through the organization of parliamentary meetings.

A Pre-COP26 Parliamentary is organized by IPU on 8-9 October 2021 in Rome, Italy as part of a series of pre-COP26 events hosted by Italy.
