On July 23-31, 2025, Pass NetZero had the opportunity to attend COP15 in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe!
COP15 is the 15th meeting of the Convention of the Contracting parties, with this year’s theme being “Protecting Wetlands for the Common Future.” This conference brings together world leaders, governments, and organizations from 172 different jurisdictions to champion for the protection and conservation of the world’s wetlands and ecosystems.
With our funding, we sponsored the attendance of four master students, two from Namibia University of Science and Technology (NUST) and two are from Lilongwe University of Agriculture and Natural Resources (LUANAR), to broaden our international networks and learn about current policies and initiatives.
Over the seven days of COP15, our students connected with organizations and leaders around the world, presented their research, and advocated on behalf of Pass NetZero and the work we’re doing together to advance wetland climate resilience.
This experience is a part of the Pass NetZero commitment to not just create more knowledge within the aquatic carbon capture and sequestration fields but also to train and inspire wetland leaders of today and tomorrow.
See below for pictures of our time at COP15. And yes, our president, Mr. Claude Martinet, was proudly representing Pass NetZero at the conference too!
