IISD launches video blog to make climate change talks coverage more accessible
BONN—June 7, 2013—IISD Reporting Services has launched a new video blog at the Bonn Climate Change Conference to make its reports on the negotiations more accessible to journalists and others covering the two-week meeting that began June 3.
In the Corridors complements the work of IISD's Earth Negotiations Bulletin, which has been covering important international meetings and negotiations for sustainable development over the past 20 years.
The daily coverage focuses on the work of the United Nations Subsidiary Body for Implementation (SBI), the Subsidiary Body for Scientific and Technological Advice (SBSTA) and the Ad Hoc Working Group on the Durban Platform for Enhanced Action (ADP), which are supporting the work of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change in Bonn.
IISD's Reporting Services teams are reporting on the main conference discussions and on concurrent side events
