 ETHIOPIA BEATS NIGERIA TO HOST COP-32  IN 2027


Ethiopia has been selected to host the 32nd United Nations Climate Change Conference COP32 in 2027, beating Nigeria in a closely contested bid.


Chair of the African Group of Negotiators Richard Muyingi who made  the confirmation  revealed that the decision followed a meeting where Ethiopia’s resubmitted expression of interest was endorsed.


The hosting of COP conferences rotates among global regions, with Africa due to take its turn in 2027.


Meanwhile, the host country for COP31 is yet to be decided, with Turkey and Australia currently under consideration.


Nigeria had earlier expressed interest in hosting COP32 in March, following a visit by Simon Stiell, Executive Secretary of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).


During the second Africa Climate Summit in Ethiopia, Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed announced his nation’s readiness to host the event, emphasizing that Ethiopia possesses the capacity, facilities, location, and connectivity to stage the major climate summit.


So far, Africa has hosted several COPs in the past including Morocco in 2001 and 2016, Egypt in 2022  and South Africa in 2011 but none in West Africa.
