The UN Climate Change Conference 2021 (COP26) will take place in Glasgow, UK, from 1-12 November 2021, and will bring together over 30,000 delegates, including heads of state, climate experts, and campaigners, to agree coordinated action to tackle climate change.

As part of #OurClimatePledge campaign, the CSC will be running workshops, webinars, and other activities with our Scholars and Alumni to further enrich their studies and discussion in the sphere of climate change.
