It’s COP time again. For the 29th time, Parties to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (or UNFCCC) are meeting to discuss how to reach the Convention’s ultimate objective of preventing “dangerous” interference with the climate system. While not quite as big as the record-breaking COP28 in Dubai last year, which attracted around 100,000 attendees from around the world, COP29 is still a mega-event, with an estimated 30 to 40,000 participants.

The European Chair for Sustainable Development and Climate Transition, along with the European Investment Bank and Sciences Po’s Institute for Environmental Transformations, hosted an event to discuss the climate stakes ahead of COP29, taking place in Baku, Azerbaijan from 11-22 November 2024.

Launched under Sciences Po’s Laboratory for Interdisciplinary Evaluation of Public Policies (LIEPP), the goal of the PIREES55 project is to shed light on the enabling mechanisms needed to reach the proposed targets of the European Commission’s “Fit for 55” legislative package in the energy efficiency field.

We are pleased to announce the publication of the 4th edition of the Handbook of Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation, in which our Chairholder, Prof Marc Ringel, has authored the chapter, “European Climate Policy and the Global Context“, alongside Karen Pittel, Dirk Rübbelke, Stefan Vögele & Irina Silina.

All current students of Paris School of International Affairs (PSIA) and the École d’Affaires Publiques (EAP) are invited to take part in the Chair’s 2024 autumn semester student challenge.
