Side events
and exhibits
The schedule of events and the
list of exhibits is available
130 applications for side
events and nearly 70 exhibits have been scheduled and listed.
There are some disappointed
organizers without events and some with events scheduled on a different
date/time to that requested. Participation in joint events may still be
possible - we encourage bilateral discussions with scheduled organizers to
create mergers to maximize participation in the side event schedule in the
interest of the process.
Other opportunities in Nairobi,
include to provide short presentations relayed to a global audience at the
Climate Change Kiosk and to conduct ad-hoc brainstorming sessions at the
"Bamboo Exchange" for participants.
