SUMMARY:COP 30: Postpartum or Postmortem?
DESCRIPTION:The UCLA Latin American Institute\, the UCLA Center for Brazilian Studies\, and the UCLA Luskin Center for Innovation invite you to join COP 30: Postpartum or Postmortem?\, a webinar roundtable offering a critical retrospective on the 2025 UN Climate Change Conference (COP 30) held in Belém\, Brazil. \nThis panel will examine the outcome of COP 30\, which brought over 56\,000 delegates to the Amazonian city of Belém to coordinate a global response to climate change.

Each of the panelists\, who come from a range of academic disciplines and activist groups\, has a unique perspective and long experience with climate dialogues\, COPs\, and climate politics. Did COP 30 truly incorporate a wide range of perspectives\, or did the agendas of governments and corporate lobbyists take center stage? What prospects are there for meaningful action to mitigate the effects of climate change? \nWhen: Wednesday\, January 14\, 2026 from 12:00-3:00 PM Pacific Time. \nWhere: Register here to receive the Zoom link to attend. \nPresented by: UCLA Latin American Institute\, UCLA Center for Brazilian Studies\, UCLA Luskin Center for Innovation \nModerator: Susanna Hecht\, Professor of Urban Planning and Director of Brazilian Studies\, UCLA \nPanelists: \n\nDan Kammen\, Bloomberg Distinguished Professor\, Department of Civil and Systems Engineering\, Johns Hopkins University\nRaoni Rajão\, Associate Professor\, Department of Production Engineering\, Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais\nSimone Athayde\, Research Integrity Lead\, World Resources Institute\nSassan Saatchi\, Senior Scientist\, Jet Propulsion Laboratory\, California Institute of Technology\nBen Kantner\, Ph.D. Candidate\, Department of Geography\, UCLA\n\nRegister Here
