Once again on 14 October, starting from 18.00 o’clock in the evening, we are opening our doors to Copenhagen residents – families, environment enthusiasts, students or anyone who is interested in finding out and learning about our environment. We may play the hosts, but this year’s spotlight will be on our buzzing bees and mighty forests. Copenhagen Culture Night is the annual event in Copenhagen, when cultural institutions and lots of other organisations offer a wide range of activities in an open-house setting.

Capacity-building workshop for journalists
-
Journalists at the national level may not be fully aware of the key environmental challenges in the UNECE region, the “Environment for Europe” process and its role in addressing major environmental challenges and transboundary issues to be discussed at the Seventh “Environment for Europe” Ministerial Conference. Journalists will be able to improve their knowledge and capacity to report effectively on environmental issues. This is particularly pertinent in relation to the green economy as it is an emerging concept.
The workshop programme is based on the key Conference reports and products, allowing journalists from the UNECE region to deepen their understanding of key environmental issues that will be discussed by the Conference. It is also building on journalists’ professional skills and knowledge of quality journalism standards in the field of environmental and policy reporting.
