Josee Madeia's picture

Josée Madéia took to the trees at a young age and has been interested in political and democratic institutions since schoolhood. The youth environmental movement has been her home and field of study--she recently completed her M.A. in political sociology--and she's worked with youth, feminist and environmental NGOs and on local enviro-projects in Ottawa and Halifax. She's now a member of the Canadian Youth Delegation getting ready for the 15th Conference of the Parties, the climate talks, in Copenhagen this December.

COP15 : A quick update before week 2 kicks off

| December 13, 2009

Week two of COP15 starts tomorrow. The UNFCCC has accredited tens of thousands more people than can legally be in the Bella Centre, given fire codes, so tomorrow, Monday, is the last day that all NGO observers can be in the Centre together; the last day that all international youth can organize and get media within the centre, together, as an international youth climate movement. 

We're unclear as to who, and how many of us, will be able to enter the Centre come Tuesday, but we do know that, come Thursday, none of us are getting in. 

Early Canadian Delegation meeting tomorrow morning. 

More on the happenings at Bella tomorrow.
