Expertise

Bonn: Taking energy to a sustainable future.

The former Germany capital, Bonn is now a global centre in the area of energy + the environment and one of the leading German venues for conventions and conferences. This is in part due to the many international secretariats based here that deal with nature and the environment; the UN Campus is also located in Bonn. One of the outstanding events to focus on climate change and the environment was the UN Conference on Biodiversity 2008.
