Thanks for your query. DFAT is currently exploring options to maximise stakeholder engagement in COP26, including the possibility of providing delegation briefings virtually from Glasgow. The UK has also indicated that all official side events will be held virtually.

Plans for COP26 remain fluid and the possibility of international travel for stakeholder attendance remains unclear. The UK COP26 website and UK’s foreign travel advice, as well as the Australian government Smartraveller website and the Department of Home Affairs COVID-19 and the border page continue to provide the relevant guidance on travel.
