Climate Change
Dipu Moni calls for global partnership
Foreign Minister Dipu Moni called upon the international community to provide adequate support to the countries which are vulnerable to climate change.
She also called for a new global partnership, "covering from London to Washington", which will respond to the plights of millions affected by the climate change, said a Foreign Ministry press release yesterday.
On Monday, the foreign minister led the Troika team of the Climate Vulnerable Forum (CVF), comprised of Bangladesh, Maldives and Costa Rica, at the programme organised by Climate Vulnerability Monitor in Washington DC.
She also stressed the financial and technological support for the CVF countries and is hopeful of the Monitor for arresting the global attention, especially from Washington DC circles, including the IFIs, to work on the effect of climate change.
Abdus Samad Abdullah, foreign minister of Maldives, Muni Figures, Costa Rican ambassador to the US and policy makers attended the programme, read the press release.
