(COP).
(GIC).


The COP is the supreme decision-making body of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).  
The GIC is a joint initiative of four regional groups representing investors on climate change and the transition to a low carbon economy: AIGCC (Asia), Ceres (North America), IGCC (Australia/NZ) and IIGCC (Europe).


All states that are Parties to the UNFCCC are represented at the COP, at which they review the implementation of the UNFCCC and any other legal instruments that the COP adopts and take decisions necessary to promote its effective implementation.
Participating organisations work collaboratively on global initiatives, engaging with their regional members to implement investor action on climate change.
 
A key task for the COP is to review the national communications and emission inventories submitted by Parties. Based on this information, the COP assesses the effects of the measures taken by Parties and the progress made in achieving the ultimate objective of the UNFCCC.
 
The COP meets every year, unless the Parties decide otherwise. The first COP meeting was held in Berlin, Germany in March, 1995. The 25th meeting (COP25) was held in Madrid in December 2019.
 
The meeting is sometimes known as the United Nations Climate Change Conference (UNCCC).
