Consistent with decision <a href="//www.ipcc.ch/site/assets/uploads/2024/04/p41_decisions_future.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">IPCC/XLI-4</a>, a preliminary Scoping meeting for the Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) Synthesis Report (SYR) was held during the AR6 Scoping Meeting in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, from 1 to 5 May 2017. The Panel at its 46th Session held from 6 to 10 September 2017 in Montreal, Canada, took note of document <a href="https://apps.ipcc.ch/eventmanager/documents/47/040820171122-Doc.%206%20-%20SYR_Scoping.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">IPCC-XLVI/Doc.6</a> which was produced during the scoping meeting.</p> <p>A dedicated Scoping meeting for the AR6 Synthesis Report was held in Singapore from 21 to 23 October 2019, the outcome of which is included in the AR6 SYR Scoping document <a href="https://www.ipcc.ch/site/assets/uploads/2019/12/120220200956-Doc.-10AR6-SYR.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">IPCC-LII/Doc.10</a> submitted to the 52nd session of the Panel. It is explained in more detail in the information document <a href="https://www.ipcc.ch/site/assets/uploads/2019/12/P52-INF.-12-SYR.pdf">IPCC-LII/INF.12</a>.</p> <p>The Panel at its 52nd Session held in Paris, France from 24 to 28 February 2020 agreed to the outline of the AR6 SYR as is contained in Annex 1 to <a href="https://www.ipcc.ch/site/assets/uploads/2021/12/IPCC-52_decisions-adopted-by-the-Panel.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Decision IPCC-LII-10.</a></p> <p><strong>The Synthesis Report Outline </strong></p> <p>The <a href="https://www.ipcc.ch/site/assets/uploads/2021/12/IPCC-52_decisions-adopted-by-the-Panel.pdf">SYR outline</a> agreed at the 52<sup>nd</sup> Panel Session of the IPCC consists of an introduction and three main sections arranged by timeframes. The first section, ‘Current Status and Trends’, covers the historical and present period. The second section, ‘Long-term Climate and Development Futures’, addresses projected futures up to 2100 and beyond. The final section is ‘Near-term Responses in a Changing Climate’, considers current international policy timeframes, and the time interval between now and 2030-2040.</p> <p>This structure, substantially different to what was adopted for AR5 SYR, enables a holistic framing that integrates across the Working Groups, better enabling the SYR to cover different aspects of climate change.</p>
