Climate Change and the UN Call to Action

Fordham University’s graduate program in international political economy and development (IPED) is hosting a lecture titled “Climate Change and the UN Call to Action.” Following on the heels of the ongoing Climate Change Conference, which aims to accelerate action toward the goals of the Paris Agreement and the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, the lecture will feature Selwin Hart, GSAS ’00, special adviser to the UN secretary-general on climate action and assistant secretary-general for the UN Climate Action Team. Marc Conte, Ph.D., from Fordham’s economics department will also be participating as a respondent.

This event is co-sponsored by Fordham Students for Environmental Awareness and Justice. We are grateful for the financial support of the Cassamarca Foundation.
