BC students and faculty at the United Nations Climate Change Conference with BC alum Catherine Goldberg

BC is an official Observer Organization for the United Nations Climate Change Conference—a highly influential event at the center of global climate change policymaking.

电子游戏软件 once again sent a delegation of faculty and students to the United Nations Climate Change Conference. This year's conference (COP28) was in Dubai, United Arab Emirates from November 30 to December 12, 2023.

The 席勒电子游戏正规平台所 hosted its inaugural COP Symposium in March 2024 to highlight and share the experiences of 电子游戏软件’s COP28 delegation to Dubai. The half-day event consisted of a student panel, 教师小组, and multiple exhibits where attendees interacted with delegates directly. The delegation designed the Symposium to be a “mini COP,” providing BC faculty and students who didn’t travel to Dubai with an opportunity to share in their experiences. 阅读下面的更多内容.
