The Climate Change Symposium is an annual FORUMCC flagship event that brings together civil society and representatives from the government, development partners, academic institutions, youth and women groups, and media to discuss and propose solutions to address climate change and its related issues.

FORUMCC has been, jointly with Oxfam and other Partners, organizing the Summit (previously known as symposium) since 2014. This year (2019) Summit will be the fifth one to be organised.
