Accreditation
Press accreditation deadline was 21 November 2012.
Media accreditation for UNFCCC conferences is strictly reserved for members of the press (print, photo,
radio, TV, film, news agencies and online media) who represent a bona fide media organization (formally
registered as a media organization in a country recognized by the United Nations General Assembly) and
who have a proven track record of reporting for media organizations on international affairs,
specifically climate change.
Online accreditation is the official channel to obtain
registration for the media for a conference or event. The secretariat will not accept accreditations
via any other channel (e-mail, letter or fax).
