Updated Meeting Schedule (NEW 9 July 2021)
The Fifth Meeting of the Sessional Committee of the Scientific Council (ScC-SC5) will be held from 28 June to 9 July 2021 as an online virtual meeting. There will be online plenaries, followed by a period of working on documents, culminating in closing plenaries to agree all texts. It is expected to be mainly a planning meeting, during which the Sessional Committee will discuss and agree its work plan for the intersessional period between COP13 and COP14, based on the mandates from CMS COP13.
The meeting is open to all members of the Sessional Committee, other members of the CMS Scientific Council not members of the Sessional Committee, as well as representatives of CMS Parties, CMS Agreements and CMS partner organizations and institutions.
Participants are kindly invited to download ScC-SC5 documents from the CMS website as they become available, including the schedule.
