The document discusses how telepresence technology can enable virtual participation in international conferences like COP15 on climate change. It explains that Cisco is providing telepresence conferencing rooms connected to locations around the world for delegates to meet virtually from the conference site in Copenhagen. The priority policy for the rooms follows UN guidelines, with ministers and government delegates first in line, followed by non-governmental organizations and media. The global telepresence network includes UN sites and over 75 rooms worldwide, allowing more people to engage without travel.
