It was a great pleasure for SafeRock CEO Shah Karim to meet the Delegation from the Yale Student Environmental Coalition (YSEC) at COP28 in Dubai to kick off their participation at the conference. Shah has continued to collaborate with several partners from his Alma Mater Yale University and it is always a special delight to support students in their efforts to make the planet a better place for future generations to come.
YSEC is dedicated to advocating for environmental policy and initiatives at the local, national, and international levels. The student-led organization has been awarded delegation seats to the yearly Conference of Parties to represent Yale at one the world’s forefront international climate summits. In addition, students have the opportunity to travel to DC to learn about and push for climate policy with local and federal Representatives.
