The OECD ➡️ Better Policies for Better Lives is ignoring a letter sent by United Nations experts requesting evidence to counter concerns on the negative racial & gender impact of its proposals. It replied w/ empty rhetoric to CSOs (not the UN) & ignored a 2nd CSO letter seeking evidence. So, we're making the letters public.

#NCQG text dismantles the Paris Agreement, dragging us back to 2009 ambitions and ignoring human rights, gender equality, & frontline communities, offering vague promises instead of delivering on climate finance. FEMINISTS HOLD THE LINE! Our reaction: bit.ly/NCQGalarm
