COP20 was a whirlwind of activities, events, demonstrations and contacts. From the onset I felt like it was a race to be able to\u00a0do as much as possible in the shortest amount of time. We began each day emailing our contacts from the day before (if the WiFi permitted), following up with meeting times, thanking them for their time and information or persisting with the plea\u00a0for an interview. Then, what I found to be the most challenging, was planning the\u00a0day. The apps we downloaded onto our phones were largely inaccurate when it came to times and locations for side events and press meetings (they were often changed last minute). Neither did they seem to include the full range different things going on. \u00a0However, there were moniters that helped with that. From there the day was ours to explore and learn.<\/p>\n

Each day involved some combination of side events, the Climate Action Network’s updates, and interviews. I personally loved attending side events. My research topic is about how agriculture is being discussed in\u00a0negotiations. I chose this area of study\u00a0because of a personal passion for the agricultural and food system. So, I was fascinated\u00a0with the\u00a0panelists, and experts that shed light onto the issue. Attending the events also made it\u00a0easy to find excellent people to interview.<\/p>\n

The Climate Action Network<\/a> (CAN) had wonderful updates on the conference that synthesised what was happening behind closed doors and what we, as participants, should watch out for. The image on the left was taken at one of these updates. The image on the right is of our interview with Jeff, asking about his experience in Lima.<\/p>\n
