A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

This brown bag offers an introduction to UN negotiation processes with a particular focus on climate negotiations under the UNFCCC.

Jervon sheds light on the experience of being a youth negotiator from a small island developing state and discusses the wider challenges that SIDS like the Bahamas must overcome in order to effectively engage in the UNFCCC COP process.
