The Climate Heroes Dialogue Series, held in cooperation with the US Embassy in Jakarta, brings leading climate figures from Indonesia and the United States in a 60-minute conversation to evaluate policy challenges, lessons learned, and gather ideas for future directions to ensure a safe climate future.

Join the discussion as our December Climate Heroes discuss the state of global climate cooperation, what we should work on for COP27 Climate Talks in Egypt next year, and how Indonesia and the United States can lead by example in securing a safe climate future. The discussion will be held on Tuesday, 14 December 2021, 19.00 (Jakarta time).
