Just 100 days before the Copenhagen Climate Change Conference, Fondation Sophia Antipolis, a partner of the WAVE project, will be hosting a breakfast meeting entitled:
Reduction of Greenhouse Gases: How to Intensify the Efforts?
The meeting will take place on Friday 16th October 2009 at 9am at the Picasso room – Place Sophie Laffitte – Fondation Sophia Antipolis
The breakfast aims to:
- Discuss the emergency of the climate change topic with involved actors such as politicians, NGO, scientists, civil servants etc.
- Launch the French WAVE website (www.debatclimat.eu) and introduce the innovative argument visualisation tool – the DebateGraph – to the community
- Reinforce the participation of citizens in the legislative and decisional process within the parliaments and governments
The WAVE project co-funded by the European Commission – aims to improve the inclusiveness and transparency of EU decision making at the national and European level by using highly integrated, state-of-the-art Argument Visualisation techniques to make the impact of complex EU environmental legislation on climate change more accessible and easy to understand for citizens, special interest groups and decision makers alike.
