UConn Students in Belem: First Impressions from COP30

Through the UConn@COP program, 12 UConn students attended COP30 (this year’s United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change Conference of Parties, commonly referred to as COP) in Belém, Brazil. The conference, attended by word leaders, policymakers, climate researchers, and climate activists, is a transformative experience for students as they strive to become future leaders in climate science and policy. The fellows shared their initial impressions of the conference through blog posts that can be found on the UConn Office of Sustainability website, with some selections shared in an article for UConn Today.
