COP27 - Climate Action and Education

Education will play an important role at the 2022 COP in Egypt

The complexities of climate change require a holistic approach, which UNESCO provides though its longstanding expertise combining science, education, culture, and communication and information. UNESCO will organize and join a series of events and exhibitions to bring this expertise to the United Nations Conference on Climate Change (COP27) which takes place at Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt from 6-18 November 2022.

We invite those interested to save the date for the following climate change education events at COP27. We will disseminate additional information along with livestream links in the coming weeks.
