The IPCC is an international scientific body under the auspices of the United Nations, which aims to scientifically support climate change related activities. The IPCC, established in 1988, is designed to provide governments with regular, science-based assessments of climate change, its impacts and future risks, as well as information on effective ways to prevent and adapt to climate change. This data forms the basis for negotiations at the UN Climate Conferences and facilitates innovative approaches to addressing many of the challenges posed by climate change. The IPCC 52nd session, in particular, considered the structure of the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report. The participation of the representative of Ukraine in the session contributed to the promotion of Ukrainian scientific developments in the world and strengthened the role of our country in the international organizations.
