The C2025 Organizing Committee is extremely proud to release the 2025 CES Conference Guide. The Guide was produced separately in English and in French for light versions that include tons of information.
The Guide is a key resource to understand the structure of the conference and to get in-depth information on available professional development, networking, and social opportunities. The Program Overview (p. 5) will help you understand the organization of time for a conference that starts on May 12 and ends on May 16. The PheedLoop primer (p. 23) is a speedy introduction to the online conference platform interface. Attendees will want to brush up on the conference theme and subthemes on pp. 13 and 14. And what about some fun time with social activities and gamification (pp. 25-28)? Also quite important are the tipsheets that are referenced on page 24 and available on the conference website.
As the Guide is only distributed in electronic format, we included the abstracts of all the sessions, be they workshops, plenaries, papers, panels, or any other format. This makes the Guide a reference for the long term since you can search for names or keywords and build an understanding of who is doing what in an area of interest to you.
This Guide is an opportunity for us to celebrate the tremendous efforts by our group of volunteers as well as the profound contribution of partners and exhibitors to the conference, in particular our Platinum partners: Ference & Company Consulting and the Independent Evaluation Office of the Global Environment Facility.
