As a premier event in the global adaptation spectrum, Adaptation Futures is a unique platform to facilitate dialogues towards action oriented solutions from a diverse range of stakeholders that includes academia, practitioners, scientists and policy makers from across the world.

IIASA Researchers to give keynote on "The value of CRC research".

The INQUIMUS workshop has been postponed to Spring 2022. IIASA’s Population and Just Societies (POPJUS) Program together with the Advanced Systems Analysis (ASA) Program will host the INQUIMUS workshop series entitled "Transformational risk management and Loss & Damage: What are suitable approaches for assessing climate-related (residual) risks?". The workshop will focus on the pressing issue of climate-related risks that may go beyond social and physical limits for adaptation.

Faced with increasing climate-related risks, decision-makers across the world need to strengthen and transform climate risk management approaches before limits to adaptation are met. IIASA Research Group Leader and risk and resilience expert Reinhard Mechler will discuss ways to deal with climate-related existential risk, along with key take-aways from his discussions at COP26 in Glasgow.

IIASA researchers present at Climate ExpO on the enablers and barriers to the practice of adaptation 

This webinar, focusing on transboundary climate risk and adaptation, is organised by Adaptation Without Borders (AWB), The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI) and the World Adaptation Science Programme (WASP). It is one of a series convened to support researchers, policymakers and practitioners to further their knowledge and capacity and underpin effective adaptation to climate change.

The 6th Viennese Talks on Resilience and Networks is co-organized by IIASA and FASresearch. In an effort to support a convergence of ideas between systems ecology, complexity, ecomimcry, sustainability, networks, resilience and "building back better", authors of the recently published book “A New Ecology: Systems Perspective” are meeting in this workshop to provide insight into ecological principles. 

The INQUIMUS workshop has been postponed to Winter 2021. IIASA’s Population and Just Societies Program together with the Advanced Systems Analysis Program will host the INQUIMUS workshop series entitled Risk management and Loss & Damage: What are suitable approaches for assessing climate-related (residual) risks?". The workshop will focus on the pressing issue of climate-related risks that may go beyond social and physical limits for adaptation.
