Drawing approximately 100 invited representatives of industry, government, NGOs, national and international policymaking bodies, and research groups, the MIT Global Change Forum provides a non-official, neutral setting for analysis and discussion of science and policy aspects of global environmental change, and for independent assessment of studies and policy proposals. Adhering to the “Chatham House Rule,” the meeting is off the record, with no press and no attribution of speakers’ comments without permission. Each session consists of the presentation of recent research results or insights on the topic, followed by a moderated, open discussion with all participants.
