Side event applications for the COP31 Türkiye Pavilion are now open. Propose a session that shares implementation experience, practical solutions and concrete climate action with an international audience.
Side events organised at the COP31 Türkiye Pavilion are complementary events designed to support knowledge sharing, the exchange of implementation experiences, capacity building and cooperation among stakeholders.
They provide a platform outside the formal negotiation process for public institutions, international organisations, local governments, the private sector, academia, civil society and other stakeholders to present work aligned with COP31 priorities to an international audience.
Applications are expected to go beyond institutional promotion or commercial visibility. Priority is given to proposals that present concrete, implementation-oriented work designed to serve public value.
Practical solutions, project experience and measurable results rather than general statements of intent.
Policy contributions, financing models and investment approaches that can be applied and scaled.
Technology applications and capacity-building approaches, open to international participation.
Including the moderator, all physically present.
At least one international speaker, one NGO / civil society representative and gender representation.
Sessions are expected to fit a 60-minute format.
