President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo will join the President of the US, Joe Biden, and other Heads of State and governments to open the Forests and Climate Leaders\u2019 Summit in Egypt on Monday.<\/h2>\n

The summit is part of the 27th session of the Conference of Parties (COP27) scheduled for Sharm El Sheikh from November 6 – 18, this year.<\/p>\n

The Minister of Lands and Natural Resources, Samuel Abu Jinapor, who made this known at a Pre-COP27 cocktail in Accra last Thursday evening, said the summit would provide a unique space for inter-governmental collaboration and coordinated actions with partners and stakeholders.<\/p>\n

\u201cGhana’s membership of FCLP was a testimony that the country\u2019s efforts at accelerating emission reduction has been recognised globally.<\/p>\n

\u201cThrough such efforts, Ghana is set to receive some $4.86m as payment for the country\u2019s contribution to reducing carbon in 2019,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Mr Jinapor said the money would be distributed according to a highly consultative and transparent benefit sharing plan.<\/p>\n
