Please help our Ohio State students become world changers! The Annual United Nations Climate Summit Program is seeking to send Ohio State students to the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP 29) in Baku, Azerbaijan, and we need your help! Ohio State students will represent Ohio at the conference, interacting with political, business, technology and international leaders, and share their perspectives on climate change. By attending COP 29, Ohio State students will gain valuable insights into climate negotiations and work to solve the climate crisis.
COP 29 will be the second climate conference attended by Ohio State students. In 2023, students traveled to the United Arab Emirates and participated in negotiations and events at COP 28. In Dubai, students met with State Department officials, discussed climate solutions with Columbus Mayor Andrew Ginther and attended a session on “Youth and the Role of Universities in Fostering Climate Solutions.”
At COP 29, Ohio State students will build on their work in COP 28, meeting with climate leaders, governmental officials and sharing local perspectives on climate change. The experience will not only enable students to learn more about the issues of climate change, but also allow them to represent Ohio at COP 29. Donations to this campaign will cover the costs of travel to Baku for students admitted to the program.
The pictures and videos above show the Ohio State delegation at COP 28 which was an experience of a lifetime!
