In the main communal area of the conference was the “Consider Us” washing line, showcasing the “Save our world in 20 words” campaign, highlighting the plight of Earth from a children’s perspective. They are taking this to the UN Summit on Climate Change in Copenhagen soon. See: Have a look at the TV ad: powerful stuff.

The CTICC itself was very impressive and has really taken a lot of responsibility in its green policy, offering many green conferencing packages. Its low key, no nonsense approach, good looks and sleek design uses much natural light, has trees planted inside the actual venue and other such innovative ideas. All this and more make it a state of the art conferencing venue by world standards, perfectly able to host the likes of high calibre meetings such as the UNEP FI Roundtable. No wonder it is booked up week in and week out for next couple of years. The huge red sculpture outside the new office wing of the CTICC was also quite mesmerizing, inspired by the rift valley in Africa. See pics from both sides.
