Description

The 26th UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties (COP26) will be held in Glasgow in November 2021.
But why does it matter to our industry? What should we be demanding is heard on behalf of civil engineers, and what decisions will be made which impact us?
Joining The Engineers Collective to discuss all these questions and more is Philippa Spence, UK managing director, at Ramboll.
Philippa outlines her wish list of agenda items for COP26 and talks us through the importance of making the meeting a success later this year.
Editor of NCE, Claire Smith, and reporter Catherine Kennedy also quiz Philippa on the reputational impact of the UK hosting the event, and the scrutiny that major UK infrastructure projects could come under as a result.
The Engineers Collective is powered by Bentley Systems. Around the world, engineers and architects, constructors and owner-operators are using Bentley’s software solutions to accelerate project delivery and improve asset performance for transportation infrastructure that sustains our economy and our environment.
