ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif is set to visit Baku, Azerbaijan, in mid-November to participate in the COP29 summit at the invitation of Azerbaijan’s President. The summit, scheduled for November 13-15, will feature the Innovation Zone for Climate Action, a platform designed to accelerate impactful climate solutions.
The Innovation Zone, a significant initiative from prior COPs, fosters collaboration across sectors and brings together entrepreneurs, investors, policymakers, and city leaders. It provides a unique registration system, allowing participants to engage independently from the official Blue and Green Zones. PM Shehbaz Sharif is expected to depart for Azerbaijan on Tuesday or Wednesday, where he will join leaders working toward actionable climate change solutions through cross-sector partnerships and capacity building.
