TCD alumni from across years, disciplines, and geographies gathered to reconnect personal and professionally at COP-30 in Belem, Brazil. Throughout the summit, they engaged in a range of activities, participating in panel discussions, presenting research, leading workshops, and contributing to policy dialogues. Their shared educational experiences at UF TCD will always be present in their great memories and also as knowledge and skills they use to address important social environmental issues today.
