The Qatar National Dialogue on Climate Change (QNDCC) is a leading platform for shaping climate action and advancing sustainable development across the region. Now in its fifth edition, QNDCC continues to convene policymakers, researchers, business leaders, and civil society actors to generate actionable insights and foster collaboration on shared environmental priorities.
QNDCC 2025 focuses on strengthening regional cooperation among Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries. This edition is co-hosted by the Earthna Center for a Sustainable Future, a member of Qatar Foundation, and the Abdullah Bin Hamad Al-Attiyah International Foundation for Energy and Sustainable Development. The two-day gathering is supported by the Secretariat General of Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Gulf, reinforcing its commitment to inclusive regional engagement.
The 2025 dialogue aims to deepen cross-border cooperation and leverage shared expertise to address the climate challenges facing the region.
QNDCC 2025 will feature high-level panels, spotlight sessions, capacity-building workshops led by leading entities from across the GCC, and interactive experiences designed to explore a wide range of topics.
