New features of the UN Climate Change App
If you're coming to the June Conference, the UN Climate Change App is a must have! Conceived as a one-stop shop, the app offers the latest news about the Climate Change process, along with access to live webcasts of sessions and press conferences, official documents, schedule and programmes of official meetings, side events and exhibits.
 
This year, the updated application features new functionalities. In particular, the new in-app networking feature will allow users to connect with other app users on key climate change topics. Users can also create their own conference schedule, and message other participants going to the same events through the app.

If you haven't done it yet, download or update it from your app store!
