UNWTO has joined all the other United Nations agencies assembled in Copenhagen to send a clear message that the UN is both “working and delivering as one” on climate change. The commitment, which is being respected by all agencies in a highly coordinated manner, was stressed by the UN Secretary-General, Ban Ki-moon, at the UN high-level interactive debate on the role of the UN system in addressing climate change.
