| Good afternoon, I am delighted to invite you to the virtual launch of the Mission Zero Coalition’s latest paper, Climate Negotiations and the COP Process: Lessons from the Past, Directions for the Future, on Friday 27th October (8-9am). Together with my co-author Will Farrell, who served on the COP26 Youth Advisory Group, we have sought to produce the first summary history of the COP summits, starting with COP1 in 1995. With COP28 fast approaching, understanding the path to the development of the COP process holds particular relevance. Joining us to offer her reflections on the COPs and the climate diplomacy that leads up to each summit will be former Secretary of State for Energy and Climate, The Rt Hon Amber Rudd, who led the UK team at COP21, where the Paris Agreement was signed.

With kind regards, Chris The Rt Hon Chris Skidmore OBE |
