Climate Action Network - International (CAN) is a global network of over 1,300 environmental non-governmental organisations in over 130 countries working to promote government and individual action to limit human-induced climate change to ecologically sustainable levels.[1][2]
Activities
It participated in meetings of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. It published civil society's ECO newsletter presenting the views of civil society and communities around the world during the climate negotiations,[3] and the satirical Fossil of the Day Awards.[4] It also presented the countries who are blocking the progress at the climate negotiations in implementing the Paris Agreement. It supports and coordinates members' global networks through capacity-building, campaigns, projects, and mobilizations to urge governments and other stakeholders to act on the climate emergency.
CAN members work to achieve the coordination of information exchange and non-governmental organizational strategy on international, regional, and national climate issues. They work for a healthy environment and development that "meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs" (Brundtland Commission). With the vision to protect the atmosphere, CAN opts for sustainable and equitable development worldwide. It was founded in 1989 by Michael Oppenheimer in Germany.[5]
