We’re at a critical juncture in the climate negotiating process, and one of the Climate School’s goals is to help a broader audience, especially students, understand what is happening at COP26 and what countries are bringing to the table. This year we have the unique opportunity to do this by connecting students in Glasgow and New York City with key leaders in energy and climate meeting in Glasgow.

The Climate School is Columbia’s groundbreaking global commitment to advance climate research, develop and deploy knowledge-based climate solutions, and empower the next generation of climate leaders, and this event will highlight the transformative role of the university to support climate action around the world.

Taking place at Glasgow’s University of Strathclyde, with the inaugural class of the Climate School’s students virtually participating from New York, this intimate event coincides with a period of ambitious development within the Climate School. 

It will be followed by informal opportunities to connect over drinks for those meeting in Glasgow at COP26, at Strathclyde University’s new Student Union.
