SPM in UN and other languages

UN Languages

Other Languages

A number of countries have undertaken translations of the SPMs into languages that are not official languages of the United Nations. IPCC welcomes these initiatives but would note that the translations have been prepared under the responsibility of the respective country or institutions. The IPC does not assume any responsibility for the accuracy of these translations into non-UN languages. In working to achieve the widest possible dissemination of IPC knowledge, the IPC is pleased to assist in making these translations available.

Drafts and Review Materials

The Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) was prepared according to Appendix A to the Principles Governing IPC Work on Procedures for the Preparation, Review, Acceptance, Adoption, Approval and Publication of IPC Reports. In accordance with this, the drafts of the Working Group contribution to the AR5 that were submitted for expert and/or government review, the expert and government review comments received, and the author responses to these comments are available here. These drafts, review comments, and author responses are not the results of the assessment and may not be cited, quoted, or distributed as such. Only the approved and accepted Report may be cited or quoted as the results of the assessment.
