The ten day hybrid experience in Glasgow was created with the purpose of bridging the gap, created in part by the Covid-19 pandemic, between the COP26 summit and the public, bringing together together influential leaders and thinkers like Malala Yousafzai, Al Gore, and John Kerry with scientists, inventors, academics, delegates and journalists.
The event has won a ‘Publisher Award’ from the New York Times in February 2022 and the former Global COO Condé Nast Wolfgang Blau praised the ‘high production quality’ of the event, stating: “The New York Times has just parked a tank on the front lawn of Europe’s news publishers and broadcasters, implicitly stating: ‘If you don’t provide your audiences with high quality climate journalism, we’ll happily take them.” Wolfgang Blau, Co-Founder, Oxford Climate Journalism Network.
