This document outlines the discussions regarding CEOS representation at COPs, which have been inconclusive in the past year. It highlights the agreement from the SIT Technical Meeting to ensure CEOS representation at COPs every two years, emphasizing the importance of significant CEOS involvement in COP-18. The proposal includes soliciting statements from UNFCCC parties, investigating side sessions at the EC Pavilion, and drafting a statement for SEC review by WGClimate. These strategies aim to bolster climate monitoring architecture and enhance systematic observation collaboration.
