Registration for the Climate Risk Summit now open

Registration for the Climate Risk Summit is now open, hosted by the COP26 Universities Network.

The second virtual conference from the network, the Climate Risk Summit will be taking place virtually, on 29 September – 1 October.

The Climate Risk Summit will provide a forum for discussion of climate risk topics and aims to bring key climate risk information to the attention of a wider audience in advance of COP26.

Online, free, and open to all, it’s an opportunity to connect policy, academic and student audiences both nationally and internationally. In addition, the summit will build capacity in the community of climate change academic experts in communicating risk effectively to different audiences.

The conference will take place over 3 days, complete with panel sessions and workshops to tackle the following:

• 29 September Day One: ‘Characterising Climate Risks’.
• 30 September Day Two: ‘Building Resilience to Climate Hazards’.
• 1 October Day Three: ‘Communicating Climate Risk – an Interactive Workshop’.

We hope the conference is of interest and we’d very much like you to attend. You can view the programme and register your place via the Climate Risk Summit website.
