Mistra Geopolitics Co-Director Björn-Ola Linnér and authors will present key messages from a new Mistra Geopolitics report on the future of the UN climate diplomacy to be launched on 10 November.

The Swedish Institute of International Affairs, Mistra Geopolitics and Linköping University invites you to participate in a seminar on international climate cooperation and the future of UN climate diplomacy on Friday 10 November.

Our world will be affected by climate change effects.

With the Paris Agreement’s long-term objectives in place, efforts must shift towards implementation. As highlighted in the latest IPCC synthesis report, achieving the Paris Agreement goals will require systemic transformations in all sectors.

In this seminar, we will discuss the challenges and opportunities of current international climate cooperation and the potential reforms needed to achieve transformative global climate action. The seminar will include a presentation of a report on the future of the UNFCCC, as well as a broader discussion regarding how to strengthen international climate cooperation.
