Over forty CEMS Masters in International Management students gathered in Barcelona from 19-20 May 2011 for the third annual CEMS Model UNFCCC. The block seminar is the culmination of a Climate Change Strategy Roleplay course, which involves students from the University of St Gallen, ESADE Barclona, the Warsaw School of Economics and the University of Cologne. oikos Student Reporters blogged live from the negotiations to demonstrate the role of the mass media.

The output document of the model, which was not adopted in the final vote, is available here.

For more information about the CEMS Model UNFCCC organisers, please see the Institute for Economy and the Environment at the University of St Gallen.

Half of Association of Small Island States missing

It seems like the half of the AOSIS group were too attached to their palm tree view to arrive at the UNFCCC, and are only expected at 2pm. Perhaps because their airstrips have been flooded by the rising sea levels?

    Due to a lack of funding, some AOSIS countries are having troubles to arrive at ESADE campus and participate at the negotiations. Since their countries' destiny is at stake they are trying everything in their power to arrive at soon as possible. There are roumors that the representatives of Grenada and Tuvalu might be able to join the negotiating parties at around 1.30pm.
