The 2024 Climate Fellows programme launch will take place in conjunction with the Climate Change Advisory Council Annual Review Summary Event on Wednesday 23 October 2024.

This year, the Climate Change Advisory Council published a series of reviews as part of the Annual Review 2024, culminating in the publication of the assessment of inventories and projections of emissions and cross sectoral recommendations to government.

• Explain the Council’s approach to developing its Annual Review
