Final reminder ‑ Call for expressions of interest: ºÚÁϳԹÏÍøCOP29 delegation

Posted by Government and Global Relations on July 31, 2024 in General Announcements

ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø, through the Marine and Environmental Law Institute (MELAW), has observer status at the annual UNFCCC-hosted Council of Parties (COP) climate meetings. This status allows ºÚÁϳԹÏÍøto apply to send a small number of in-person delegates (1-4) to participate in COP events.

COP29 will be held in Azerbaijan from November 11-22, 2024. Faculty, staff, and students interested in attending COP in-person as a ºÚÁϳԹÏÍødelegate are invited to respond by completing and submitting the form linked below by noon on August 1, 2024.  

In response to increasing interest in attending, ºÚÁϳԹÏÍøis piloting a new application process. Through this, 50% of delegate spots will be allotted to MELAW members and 50% to other ºÚÁϳԹÏÍøparticipants. MELAW has established its own process to fill their allotment. This EOI seeks to fill Dalhousie’s allotment. EOIs will be prioritized based on the following criteria:

  1. Invited participation in a panel/event (with blue zone activities taking priority over green zone),
  2. Active research in the climate space,
  3. Evidence of funding to attend,
  4. Applicant is unable to obtain a delegate pass through an affiliation with another organization.
