The Climate Networking Conference: The Lunch break brings together a wide range of institutions, campaigners, activists, scientists, virtual visits and artists sharing their work and ideas. These sessions provide an avenue for wider and more focused discussions on the themes of the conference. Please choose as many sessions as you like as it helps us to plan the best arrangements for participants.
(Although we will make every endeavour to provide all these sessions- we cannot guarantee any of them – due to factors which may arise beyond our control in these unusual times, and so we do reserve the right to alter any of them if necessary)
