What is Climate Week NYC?

Climate Week NYC 2024 began on 22 September and is running until 29 September. 

Collecting over 600 activities and events every year in person, online and hybrid across New York City, Climate Week NYC is the biggest annual climate event of its kind.

The week is hosted by an international non-profit organisation, Climate Group. Founded in 2003, the nonprofit aims to drive climate action fast. During Climate Week NYC, the group hosts the official program, which gathers the most senior global executives from the civil society, government, business and climate sectors.

Across the week, global civil society representatives, political change makers, business leaders and local decision-takers come together to discuss the key issues the climate movement faces, and celebrate change that is already occurring, whilst also catalysing change for the future, too.
