President of COP29
[ edit ]
Azerbaijan appointed Mukhtar Babayev as COP29 president in March 2024.[4] Mukhtar Babayev is the Minister of Ecology and Natural Resources of Azerbaijan Republic and the former Vice President for Ecology of SOCAR , Azerbaijan's national oil company.[5]
Changes in committee
[ edit ]
The conference's committee originally consisted of 28 men. After criticism voiced by Christiana Figueres , the Executive Secretary of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, and others, another two men and eleven women were added to the panel.[6] [7]
Background of climate conferences in Azerbaijan
[ edit ]
In 2018, oikos Baku —a student-led organization—organized model COP23.5, an extended version of Model UN for UNFCCC to train climate change leaders in Azerbaijan.[8] [9]

More than 30 delegates attended and represented different countries in the deliberation process of COP23.5.[10]
Criticism
[ edit ]
The decision to host COP29 in Azerbaijan was criticized by human rights activists and political analysts due to Azerbaijan's human rights abuses .[11] [12] [13] Michael Rubin , senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute (AEI) and ex-Pentagon official wrote that Azerbaijan's victory in securing its bid to host COP may backfire: "Caviar diplomacy and PR-firm messaging may sway the naïve, ignorant, or easily bought, but a light will also shine on the country's rentierism , corruption , and abuses ."[12]
Stephan Pechdimaldji, a communications strategist, wrote that "when attendees attend COP29 in Baku, they will also be visiting an area known to be 'the ecologically most devastated area in the world ' by local scientists.[14] [15] Time s ] a mockery of the existential crisis we face as a species" and "undermin[es ] the credibility of what is likely the most important cause in the world."[16] oil and gas production comprise half of Azerbaijan's GDP and 92.5% of its export revenue in 2022.[17]
Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo announced that she will not attend COP29 in Baku, citing the involvement of the Azerbaijani government in the ethnic cleansing of Armenians in the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh region in September 2023.[18]
Reception and Ideation
[ edit ]
In the run up to the COP29 meeting, ministers of the Commonwealth have called for collective action on the oceans and to focus on its management.[19]
