The 2024 Global Methane Forum was a premier global event that convened global thought and industry leaders in Geneva, Switzerland from 18-21 March 2024 to promote replicable methane mitigation successes and mobilize action to achieve ambitious methane emission reductions. This event was organized jointly with the UN Economic Commission for Europe’s Group of Experts meetings – the 19th Session of the Group of Experts on Coal Mine Methane and Just Transition, and the 11th Session of the Group of Experts on Gas.
