Journalists, science writers, bloggers: If you wish to ask questions remotely during press conferences, you can do so using the chat window you will find below the web stream for each press conference. Please provide your name and affiliation and indicate who your question is for when asking. Be courteous and respectful and make sure to protect your private information, as the chat is public. During each press conference, a member of the EGU press team will monitor the chat and read your questions out loud. For more information, check the press conferences page on the EGU media website.

Any queries related to press conferences should be directed to the EGU Media and Communications Manager, Bárbara Ferreira, at media@egu.eu.

Selected sessions as well as all press conferences during the General Assembly 2019 will be live-streamed and are also available on demand after the conference. Below you will find the overall webstreaming programme. Once the individual sessions start, a link opening the respective stream will appear.
