WORLD’S MOST POWERFUL MAYORS & THOUGHT LEADERS TO CONVENE IN

COPENHAGEN TO DRIVE GREATER AMBITION ON CLIMATE CHANGE



Media Accreditation Now Open 



Led by Lord Mayor of Copenhagen, Frank Jensen and Paris Mayor & Chair of C40 Cities, Anne Hidalgo, the C40 World Mayors Summit will take place in Copenhagen from October 9th -12th, 2019.



The IPCC report on Global Warming of 1.5 °C clearly demonstrated the threat posed by climate change. For more than a decade, mayors of the world’s great cities have been at the forefront of efforts to address the impending climate crisis. Today more than 70 C40 cities have committed to climate action that is consistent with keeping global temperature rise to within the limits that scientists say is safe.



In October, more than 50 mayors of some of the world’s largest and most influential cities will meet  in Copenhagen for the C40 World Mayors Summit. They will be joined by CEOs, political leaders, campaigners, scientists and young people determined to bring about transformational change.



Previous C40 Mayors Summits, hosted by London, New York, Seoul, Sao Paulo, Johannesburg and Mexico City have provided unique opportunities for the mayors of the world’s great cities to showcase their climate leadership on the global stage.  



Copenhagen, a true pioneer in creating the sustainable, healthy and liveable cities of the future, is committed to bringing the citizens of the city into the Summit. A citizen’s summit, “Live Like Tomorrow”, will activate mayors, businesses and citizens and run in parallel to the Main Summit at sites around Copenhagen.



WHEN:              October 10–11, 2019: Main Summit and City Business Forum

October 9 & 12, 2019: Side events, Citizens Summit, media opportunities



WHERE:            Tivoli Congress Center, Arni Magnussons Gade 2, 1577 Copenhagen, Denmark
