Climate CoLab conference: Crowds & Climate

Date: 
Tuesday, October 6, 2015 - 08:00 to 19:30

The MIT Climate CoLab (www.climatecolab.org) is an online community of over 40,000 people, where experts and non-experts work together to develop proposals for how to address climate change.

Join us at Crowds & Climate, the Climate CoLab's event on the MIT campus, where we bring together leaders from businesses, non-profit organizations, governments and communities around the world to advance an online global problem-solving effort to more effectively tackle climate change.

We will celebrate the innovative proposals that emerged from the 2015 Climate CoLab contests. These winners will present how their work tackles specific climate change challenges and will engage with leaders in the field to help accelerate their ideas. Presentations will be followed by a highly interactive workshop, where you can meet and contribute to these winners yourself, as well as engage in conversations with other attendees about how the world's experts and citizens can work together to solve the complex, complicated problem of climate change.

Sessions will be followed by Solve's roundtable panel on fuel, where world-class thought leaders will discuss the future of energy, food and water.

Attendees are also invited to join the Solve opening session on Monday afternoon, as well as the other events that are a part of HUBweek, a week-long city-wide festival celebrating ideas and innovation in the Boston area.

Student scholarships are available.
