Climate Week NYC 2019

Climate Week NYC will run in coordination with the UN and the City of New York continues to grow as the time and place for the world to showcase amazing climate action and discuss how to do more.

The anchor events of Climate Week are growing, and the number of events in 2019 is set to far exceed the 150 events of 2018 – the largest ever. Climate Week NYC is run by The Climate Group, the international non-profit focused on accelerating climate action.

During Climate Week NYC this year, the UN Secretary-General will be holding a Climate Action Summit on September 23. Climate Week will support the Summit by providing a space for leading organizations around the world to extend action far and wide outside of the UN building and throughout the whole week.

In addition, the Climate Week Hub, due to being massively oversubscribed in 2018, will extend to two days – allowing a fantastic physical space for businesses, states, cities and the whole diverse frontier of global climate action to come together.

Businesses, governments, academic institutions, arts organizations, individuals and non- profit organisations are invited to participate in the week-long events program including panel discussions concerts, exhibitions, seminars and more.

Climate Week NYC 2019 Events will be categorized in the following programs:

• Youth & Climate Activism
• Energy Transition
• Industry Transition
• Clean Transport, Buildings and Infrastructure
• Food, Land and Nature Based Solutions
• Climate Finance, Investment and Carbon Pricing
