IIASA researchers will participate in the European Geosciences Union (EGU) 2024 conference presenting research on climate change, risk and resilience, energy, citizen science, and more.
The General Assembly 2024 of the European Geosciences Union (EGU) will take place at the Austria Center Vienna (ACV) in Vienna, Austria and online from 14–19 April 2024.
The EGU General Assembly 2024 brings together geoscientists from all over the world to one meeting covering all disciplines of the Earth, planetary, and space sciences. The EGU aims to provide a forum where scientists, especially early career researchers, can present their work and discuss their ideas with experts in all fields of geoscience.
