Ankara: The United Nations Convention to Combat desertification (UNCCD) expects to get big impetus from its 14th conference of Parties (COP), to be held in New Delhi early this September, as “Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be able to bring the world leaders together” on the issues.
“The COP is taking place in Delhi and we are hopeful that convention would get big impetus from thereon,’ said Dr Barron Joseph Orr, Lead Scientist UNCCD, adding that the “Modi magic” would further its cause and bring global
political leadership together to tackle the issues more vigorously than ever before.
