Guided tour to UNFCCC Story Gallery - A History of Climate Change Negotiations

The UNFCCC process, despite its relatively short history, has made significant strides in addressing the urgent climate challenge. To commemorate these achievements, the UNFCCC Richard Kinley Gallery was established to document the history and recognize the contributions of those involved in 30 years of climate negotiations. Located in the AHH Building (at AH Entrance H-107 at UN Campus), the Gallery showcases the history of intergovernmental climate change negotiations and the UN Climate Change Secretariat's role through original documents, artifacts, rare photographs, and videos. The Gallery is open to all participants of the SB sessions.

A guided tour of the UNFCCC Richard Kinley Gallery is offered during the SB sessions on:
Wednesday, 12 June at 16:00 hrs

Participants interested in joining a tour are kindly requested to contact the Records Management Team at rm-team@unfccc.int to register. Additional guided tours may be arranged upon request, also by contacting the Records Management Team at rm-team@unfccc.int.

Zero tolerance towards harassment

The UNFCCC secretariat will apply a zero-tolerance approach to any form of harassment, including sexual harassment, and will deal with such complaints promptly.

We encourage reporting of any incident either directly to any badged UN Department of Safety and Security (UNDSS) officer or by calling the United Nations Security Control Centre, which is open 24 hours a day, at +49 228 9267 1820 (landline).
