For the duration of the sessions, all official meetings and press conferences will be available live and on demand, with English or floor audio streams. On-demand files will be available shortly after the close of each meeting. Publications that are clearly attributed to a Party or an admitted observer organization that is not exhibiting may be distributed and displayed at the Climate Change Publications Counter, after approval. The counter is located on the ground floor in the foyer of the ATLAPA conference center.
