The 17th Conference Of the Parties of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (2011, Durban) ended with the decision to start the post-2012 process. This decision was reached with some difficulty and 2012 is a key date, as it marks the end of the first period of commitment to the Kyoto Protocol, the end of the negotiations of the agreements for the 2012-2020 period, and the preparation of a future post-2020 agreement.

The challenge in Doha will be to set the stage for this process, and to define and establish the conditions for success for both the 2012-2020 period and the future agreement. The Durban Decision recognises the need for all countries to urgently confront the serious threat of what are the often violent and potentially irreversible threats of climate change.

The publication also wants to illustrate the lessons learned from previous negotiations, the need to consider the profound changes in economic equilibrium in a changing world. It also covers the operationalization of the Green Fund and financial issues to be decided in Doha, REDD +, support to implementation of actions in developing countries, as well as other matters under in Doha.
