Virtual Conference

#ClimateExp0

17-21 May 2021

We are pleased to announce Climate Exp0, the first conference organised by the COP26 Universities Network (UK)—a growing group of more than 55 UK-based universities and research institutes working together to raise ambition for tangible outcomes from the UN COP26 Climate Change Conference (Glasgow, Scotland, November 2021).

In partnership with ‘Rete delle Universita’ per lo sviluppo Sostenibile (the Italian University Network for Sustainable Development), Climate Exp0 will take place on 17 – 21 May 2021.

At a critical juncture in the COP26 pre-meetings and negotiations—six months prior to the conference itself—the conference will showcase the latest thinking and most relevant UK and international research in the run-up to COP26 around five key themes: Adaptation and Resilience; Finance; Green Recovery; Mitigation Solutions; and Nature-based Solutions.

Online, free, and open to all, it’s an opportunity to connect policy, academic and student audiences across the globe, and harness the power of virtual collaboration to help advance a resilient, zero-carbon world.

Call for submissions

As co-organisers of the conference we invited contributions in particular to the Green Recovery and the Finance themes: how can we rebuild greener and better after the COVID-19 pandemic, bearing in mind that Green Recovery is only green if also socially equitable; what are the opportunities and risks associated with climate change and a transition to a net zero economy for the global finance sector. We are accepting abstracts for individual presentations and poster presentations. The closing date was 10 March 2021 and full information is available via the Climate Exp0 website.
