The Saleemul Huq Action Research Exchange (SHARE) Hub was officially launched at COP29 in Baku, Azerbaijan, on November 12, 2024, as a global initiative to bridge the persistent gap between climate research, policy, and practice. Named in honor of Dr. Saleemul Huq, a visionary leader in climate justice, loss and damage (L&D) and locally led adaptation (LLA), the Hub is committed to fostering collaborative, action-oriented research that directly informs and supports climate policy, while amplifying the voices of vulnerable communities on the frontlines of climate change.
Over the course of the Hub during COP29, the SHARE Hub convened 31 sessions, 6 receptions, 4 high-level discussions, and 4 key meetings, engaging diverse stakeholders across 8 thematic areas.
