WES2022 | Yuval Noah Harari and Vanessa Nakate in conversation

Welcome to the Warwick Economics Summit 2022! We were delighted to host a conversation between Historian, Professor and Author, Yuval Noah Harari and Climate Justice Activist, Vanessa Nakate. Over the past decades, the challenge of climate change has evolved into the most pressing threat facing humanity. We have entered the 7th year since adopting the Paris Agreement with the goal to limit global warming to well below 2 degrees Celsius, compared to pre-industrial levels. The time is ripe to discuss climate change and the role of countries in combating it. To moderate the discussion correspondent and anchor for CNN, Bill Weir. The Warwick Economics Summit (WES) is the largest student-run Economics summit in Europe. Now having run for nearly two decades, the Summit has evolved in form and stature into a truly international forum where talented students from various universities listen to some of the world’s most revered and inspirational speakers on a wide range of topics.
