Under2 Coalition
We’re the largest global network of states and regions committed to achieving net zero emissions by 2050 - at the latest.
Climate Group acts as the Under2 Coalition’s secretariat, supporting and accelerating collective climate ambition.
Climate Week NYC 2026
September 21-27 | New York City
Governors, ministers and regional leaders from across the Under2 Coalition will be in New York City to tackle some of the biggest questions facing climate delivery.
How do we build cleaner, more secure energy systems? Cut methane faster? Transform food systems? Strengthen resilience? And get more finance flowing to the places delivering change?
Under2 Coalition leaders will be sharing what’s already working in their regions, what they’re learning and what it will take to scale it.
We're the largest global network of states and regions committed to achieving net zero emissions by 2050 at the latest.
Today, the coalition represents 183 individual states, regions, provinces and subnational governments along with several other national and subnational entities: a total of more than 270 actors, totalling more than 50% of global GDP.
