[EVENT] COP26

Ipsos is continuing to drive the debate in the fight against climate change by shining a light on the fears and expectations of citizens, consumers and employees around the world when it comes to sustainability. Only through doing this can government, brands and businesses gain an understanding of the issues and translate these into meaningful action.

At the UN Climate Change Conference, COP26, in Glasgow between 31 October and 12 November, Ipsos will be taking an active role through several key platforms:

• Karen Fraser MBE, a Senior Director in Ipsos in the UK, chaired a panel on brands and climate change for ITV Media on Monday 1 November at STV in Glasgow and via livestream. In this session, broadcasters discussed their commercial initiatives for sustainability and how brands can benefit, and brands shared how they are leading the charge towards a greener future and their learnings along the way.

   

• Rachel Brisley, the new head of the Energy & Environment team in Ipsos Public Affairs will be taking part in a panel event in the EU pavilion on 9 November at 10am, organised by CDRI and EU delegation to India in partnership with UK Met Office and University of Exeter. The event is entitled ‘Climate adaptation - through infrastructure and governance – a global perspective’ and will discuss evidence and solutions to the climate challenge, governance frameworks, quantifying pathways and new research to inform climate adaptation, climate and disaster risks, infrastructure resilience, and the next generation of climate services. To attend please register here.
• Jessica Long and Pippa Bailey will be presenting in the blue zone at the COP26 Action Hub at 4pm on 11 November on the topic ‘Mythbusting the global climate of opinion’. The webcast is available on the Glasgow Climate Change Conference website.
