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.

The mitigation group has prepared the final proposal after long discussions. Detailed results are as follows:
  • the parties agree that no more than a 2 degrees increase in global temperature;
  • financial contributions are to be made from developed countries to countries facing severe problems with climate change adaptation;
  • the parties are willing to commit to taking extensive measures in technology trading, green and sustainable development, and emission reduction attempts.
