Casa Árabe is organizing a special series of activities at its headquarters in Madrid to celebrate the COP-28 climate summit being held in the United Arab Emirates.

These conference days at Casa Árabe will invite us to reflect upon the biggest challenges existing within the context of COP28, but we will be going even further beyond the scope of this yearly summit by discussing the challenges entailed by the ecological transition, with a series of presentations by well-known speakers.
