Events submitted after the deadline will be reviewed case by case. 

Is there a registration fee?

Climate Week NYC is a non profit platform run by a small, dedicated team. Registration fees help keep the week accessible and make sure every host gets the support they need. 

For-profit companies pay a $600 registration fee. Non profit organizations, schools, community groups, and government bodies are welcome to donate any amount, instead - whatever works for you.
 
You won't be asked for any billing details in the first stage of the application.
