The ninth session of the Committee on Environment and Development (CED9) will be held at the ministerial level from 1-3 July 2026 in Bangkok.
CED9 will review progress in the priority areas outlined in the Ministerial Declaration, on Protecting Our Planet through Regional Cooperation and Solidarity in Asia and the Pacific, adopted by the Committee at its seventh session in 2022, as well as standing issues to be addressed by the Committee, with an added focus on promoting synergistic policymaking and the integrated implementation of efforts to advance the SDGs and address the triple planetary crisis — climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution in its multiple dimensions.
