PRECOP 27 conference organised by the United Nations Global Compact Network Poland and the PTWP Group will be held on 18-19 October at the International Congress Centre in Katowice. The main goal of PRECOP 27 is to prepare the guidelines and recommendations for the upcoming COP27 Climate Summit in Egypt in November. Registration is now open, and the participants are welcome to sign up.
The main objective of PRECOP 27, organised in partnership with the European Commission, is to bring together communities to discuss the main issues of the annual Climate Summit agenda. The event will consist of two days of panels with more than 100 speakers.
“The pandemic, the war in Ukraine, and the looming energy crisis may all deal a blow to our ambitious environmental goals. And yet, the climate crisis continues. In 2021, UN Secretary-General, António Guterres, stressed that key climate change indicators had reached record-high levels. Both COP 26, which took place in Glasgow, and the upcoming COP 27 in Egypt share a common goal: to step up and expedite the measures laid down in the Paris Agreement of 2015”, says Kamil Wyszkowski, national representative and executive director at UN Global Compact Network Poland.
The agenda of PRECOP27 will also cover such issues as business versus the green revolution, ESG, climate technologies, sustainable transport, green construction, cities for climate, water resources, and retention.
