This year, UNU-INRA will be at London Climate Action Week (LCAW) -an open, inclusive platform for climate action.
Now in its eighth edition, LCAW has grown into one of the world’s largest independent climate events, convening more than 75,000 participants across over 1,000 activities during nine days each June.
The program spans community gatherings, school initiatives, and major international conferences — all united by a single purpose: to deliberate, discuss, and accelerate climate action worldwide.
LCAW serves as the bridge between COPs, where the UN Global Climate Action Agenda comes alive in cities and communities, and where the international climate community collaborates to drive progress and collective action.
Below are some open side events. All are welcome to join us!
