Resources and support to stay safe around COP29
With COP29 taking place in the Azerbaijani capital of Baku from 11 to 22 November 2024, it is vital for climate activists and environmental defenders to know that there are resources and support available from allies across the globe to help them stay safe before, during, and after the conference.
Staying safe before, during, and after COP29
We have again collaborated with Global Climate Legal Defense (CliDef) on a guide for climate advocates and activists attending COP29 in Azerbaijan. In the first part of the Guide to Azerbaijan and Holistic Security for Participants, CliDef provides an overview of the legal framework and resources available to navigate the local legal landscape in Azerbaijan. In the second part, we outline potential risks and comprehensive strategies for protecting both your physical and digital security before, during, and after the event.
