Together, these elements reflect the wealth of natural resources and human technology, and stress the need for innovation in all sectors to achieve a significant leap in comprehensive sustainable development.

The slogan reinforces the emphasis on the approach of the Conference of the Parties to be practical, inclusive and contain all, and raise ambitions, to move the world from setting goals to implementing them on the topics of “mitigation”, “adaptation”, “financing”, and “losses and damages”.
