Definicija: Bistvo Pariškega sporazuma. Od vsake države se zahteva, da pripravijo načrt svojega boja s podnebnimi spremembami. Razume se, da države v razvoju ne morejo dosegati ambicioznih ciljev znižanja globalne temperature v istem času kot razvite države. Vsak ”podnebni načrt” (NDC) odraža ambicijo države za zmanjševanje onesnaževanja, upoštevajoč okoliščine in sposobnosti države.

Definicija: A practice by which all persons forming part of a large-scale influx are regarded as refugees on a prima facie basis. Group determination ensures that protection and assistance needs are met without prior individual status determination. Refugee status must normally be determined on an individual basis, but situations often arise in which large populations have been displaced under circumstances indicating that most members of the population could be considered individually as refugees. In such situations, the need to provide protection and assistance is often extremely urgent and it may not be possible for purely practical reasons to carry out an individual determination of refugee status for each member of that population.
