In this moment of reckoning, we, parliamentarians from some of the world's most climatevulnerable South Asian countries, put forward the idea of regional climate multilateralism as a concrete response to that call. We see this as a model grounded in solidarity and justice but animated by the urgency that COP30 has made impossible to ignore.
