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.

Russia is missing....


Starting yesterday Russia hasn't attended neither working group meetings nor plenaries, causing a confusion. It seems that Russia doesn't want to negotiate... or today's rumors are true and it's honeymoon of three, they are enjoying the city instead of participating in the negotiations and making their contribution. It seems that Russia's representatives aren't strong enough to present their position...

  1. Well, so Russia agrees on everything discussed within the conference.

  2. I think they will have a difficult conversation with the president when they return home.
