United Nations Climate Change Conference
The Conference of the Parties (COP) is an annual event that brings governments together to discuss and review how climate change is being managed domestically and internationally.
COP26
In 2021, COP26 was hosted by the UK in Glasgow. We took the opportunity to build on the topics and themes explored we through our display Our Broken Planet and platformed our scientists on stage at the NYT Climate Hub.
We also invited a host of speakers - from the young activists at Force of Nature to Indigenous campaigners from the Amazon - to join us in The Nature Bar co-hosted by Voice for Nature.
The Nature Bar
The Museum co-created The Nature Bar, hosting a group of extraordinary policymakers, environmentalists, scientists, journalists, storytellers and artists to speak on behalf of nature.
