Live From the United Nations
Today UN Dispatch and the UN Foundation is hosting a group of 12 bloggers at the UN, the first-ever event designed solely for bloggers, enabling them to report on the United Nations. These bloggers and UN Dispatch will be live blogging the UN’s High-Level Event on Climate Change. We will be linking here to their posts. The content below is all their own…

This Should Be Interesting…
As our source told us yesterday, Barbados Prime Minister Owen Arthur is co-chairing the UN Plenary Session “From Vulnerability To Resilience”. The event is being covered online by 12 invited bloggers.
I haven’t seen Owen yet other than a brief mention of his presence on the Global Voices website. Strange… the PM of Denmark who is co-chairing with Owen Arthur is mentioned, but no mention of Owen yet. I hope he wasn’t “sick” last night.
We hope he looks well rested and that his hotel room was satisfactory!
We’ll be following along to see if he actually says anything – and to see if he is actually there!
