Before leaving for his trip, Kerry tweeted that he was "looking forward to meaningful discussions with friends in the Emirates, India, and Bangladesh on how to tackle the climate crisis".
He is in the UAE to participate in the UAE-hosted GCC and MENA Regional Dialogue For Climate Action on Sunday, in advance of the Leaders Summit on Climate to take place in Washington this month and in the run up to the 26th Conference of the Parties to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change later this year (COP26).
