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.

Subnational Investment Forum

9 November 2026 | COP31 - Antalya, Türkiye

Across the world, states and regions have climate solutions ready to move forward, but access to finance is holding them back.

Building on a year of investment dialogues across São Paulo, Mumbai, Singapore, London and New York, we're bringing government leaders, investors and financial institutions together at COP31 to help turn climate projects into lasting benefits for people and communities.

To attend this event, you must have a valid COP31 Blue Zone pass. 

Climate Week NYC

Governors, ministers and regional leaders from across the Under2 Coalition came together  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  shared 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. 

What we do

  • Diplomacy

 

Our leadership and governance

The Under2 Coalition's co-chairs guide the direction of our policies:
