<\/b>Early Career Scientists at the COP31 Cryosphere Pavilion<\/span><\/b><\/h3><\/div>\n

The COP31 Cryosphere Pavilion will take place in the accredited Blue Zone in Antalya, T\u00fcrkiye from November 9-20, 2026. ICCI will coordinate more than sixty side events, together with a number of partners from governments, IGOs, academic institutions, and civil society throughout both weeks of the conference.<\/p>\n

The first Cryosphere Pavilion took place at COP25 and hosted five Early Career Scientist (ECS) volunteers, all doctoral and post-doctoral level. This number grew to eight for COP26 (Glasgow), COP27 (Sharm El Sheikh), COP28 (Dubai), COP29 (Baku), and COP30 (Bel\u00e9m), with four volunteers participating during Week 1 and the other four during Week 2.<\/p>\n

These volunteers staff the Pavilion, introduce speakers, and answer questions about the exhibits to make the science more accessible to a wide range of audiences. Importantly, the experience also gives the volunteers an inside view of UNFCCC negotiations to further inform their scientific careers. The COP31 Cryosphere Pavilion will continue this program and provide both housing and travel to a new set of eight early career scientists. ECS volunteers normally live together in apartment in shared accommodations, creating bonds that will last in their professional and academic careers.<\/p>\n
