Join us in eight events during HS 2023!
The 28th United Nations Climate Change conference (COP28) will be held in Dubai in December 2023. It serves as a platform for policy makers from all over the world to discuss measures against the climate crisis. And Big Oil will be there, too. We from SSC at ETH are hosting a mirror version of the COP28 this year to discuss the COP28 process and enable you to act efficiently against the climate crisis. Through events before, during, and after COP 28, participants will have the opportunity to engage with important topics related to the COP process. To find out more, visit our events page.
Use this opportunity to learn more about COP and the climate crisis. Meet people with similar interests and broaden your network. We will be happy to host you for the Mirror COP 28!
