COP18 side event: Supporting climate policies through social media

If you’re taking part in the UN climate talks in person or in spirit, join us on Wednesday 28 November for what promises to be a fascinating discussion.

There has never been a more critical time to know how to effectively communicate climate change.

Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest and other sites are all part of the rich tapestry of the web – and all critical tools journalists, campaigners and diplomats can use to convey their message.

On Wednesday 28 November RTCC is joining forces with partners from Adopt a Negotiator, tcktcktck and Earth in Brackets for a 90 minute interactive debate on how climate policymaking can be supported through social media.

If you’re in Doha, join us! It will take place in Side Event Room 7 between 1315-1445.

If you’re not in Doha, join us! Our partners at OneWorld will broadcast a livestream – details to follow.
