UConn@COP Fellowship Program
The UConn@COP Fellowship is an immersive learning experience that sends a cohort of undergraduate and graduate students to the United Nations’ Conference of the Parties (COP) annual global Climate Change Conference. The event brings together diplomats, business executives, heads of government, university leaders, environmental activists, NGO’s and other delegates to discuss progress on addressing climate change. The conference provides students with access to world leaders and a unique inside look at the global effort to combat climate change and promote climate justice through policy and technological solutions.
This year, negotiations will take place in Belém, Brazil and our cohort will attend from November 15th-22nd. UConn and donors cover nearly all costs of the program for students.
