The 2050 Pathways Platform is a government and multi-stakeholder initiative launched at COP22 by then High-Level Climate Champion and architect of the Paris Agreement Laurence Tubiana. It was established at the request of countries who wanted a “big tent” approach to 2050 long-term climate strategies. In addition to countries, it brings together a network of bilateral and multilateral donors, international and national think tanks, and climate policy experts with an interest in long-term planning in response to the climate challenge.
