British Council organises climate change webinar

The British Council in partnership with the Ministry of Municipality and Environment (MME), Arab Youth Climate Movement Qatar and Qatar Green Building Council (QGBC) delivered the ‘Climate Change in Qatar Virtual Webinar,’ as part of the Qatar – UK Alumni Talk series.

Nearly 100 attendees from various fields and organisations attended the webinar. The webinar offered an opportunity for an engaging and informative dialogue with environmental experts, government officials, educators, and youth environment leaders in Qatar, to share their views on climate change issues, discuss international and local efforts needed and to explore how education can play a vital role in empowering young people to make a difference. In November 2021, the UK will co-host the UN Climate Change Conference COP26, in partnership with Italy, bringing together world leaders to tackle climate change.
