At the UN Climate Summit, SCI brings clean cooking into the heart of global climate conversations.
Through demonstrations, exhibitions, press briefings, and side events, we spotlight solar cooking as a practical, people-centered climate solution. Our work shows how clean cooking reduces deforestation, cuts emissions, and strengthens climate resilience in vulnerable communities.
We collaborate with global partners, NGOs, and policymakers to position solar cooking as a vital part of climate adaptation and mitigation strategies — turning innovation into action.
Solar Cookers International (SCI) is participating in the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP31), taking place November 9–20, 2026, in Antalya, Türkiye.
