Abstract

As observers from the University of Barcelona, we have participated in the COP26 in Glasgow and have been able to see the complexities of what has been called inclusive multilateralism, or in an ideal sense, an open and transparent negotiation process in which the States Parties to the Framework Convention on Climate Change, the Kyoto Protocol and the Paris Agreement reached an agreement, with the participation of the different representatives of international civil society who would have defended a general interest but also their own -those of indigenous peoples, those of business and industry NGOs, those of trade union organizations, those of environmental NGOs. However, the fact that the final CoP26 Declaration is presented as the Glasgow Pactcannot hide the fact that a minimum political agreement has been reached, in accordance with the guidelines set in the negotiations by the main CO2 emitting countries, which have not been asked for more, because they are also emerging powers and because developed countries are far from contributing financially to developing countries achieving the mitigation and adaptation targets committed to in their national contributions, even thoughthe cost of not contributing as pledgedmay be higher
