The 2024 Global Methane Forum will convene global thought and industry leaders in Geneva, Switzerland from March 2024 to promote replicable methane mitigation successes and mobilize action to continue making progress toward reducing methane emissions. The Forum will be hosted by the Global Methane Initiative (GMI) and the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) in partnership with the Global Methane Hub and the Climate and Clean Air Coalition (CCAC). The target audience for this Forum includes methane capture and use project developers, site and/or project managers, national and international policy makers, and country partners. This event will be organized jointly with the UN Economic Commission for Europe’s Group of Experts meetings – the 11th Session of the Group of Experts on Gas, and the 19th Session of the Group of Experts on Coal Mine Methane and Just Transition.
The goals of the 2024 Global Methane Forum are to:
- Convene and inspire high-level international participants to advance action to achieve ambitious global methane mitigation targets;
- Highlight methane mitigation activities underway to achieve the goals of the Global Methane Pledge;
- Share information about technical, policy, financing, and regulatory issues related to methane policy and project development; and
- Engage and enhance private sector participation in methane mitigation.
