Why does soil health monitoring matter? What are some of the latest tools scientists are developing to make it easier? And what ambitions do policymakers have for monitoring frameworks of the future? Sign up for this free webinar to join leading experts to discuss these topics and learn more about the future of soil science.
Join the creators of the Soil Health Data Cube, OpenGeoHub Foundation, for the first webinar in the Accelerating collection and use of soil health information using AI technology (AI 4 Soil Health) project’s series, exploring how AI, open data and new research is transforming soil health monitoring and management across Europe.
ISEE-Degrowth 2025 conference: Building socially just postgrowth futures - linking theory and action
The conference, jointly organized as the 18th ISEE Conference and the 11th International Degrowth Conference, will be held in Oslo from June 24–27, 2025, under the main theme: "Building socially just postgrowth futures – linking theory and action."
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) methods are becoming increasingly important in both science and society. In climate science - where complex biophysical and societal processes interact across diverse temporal and spatial scales, and datasets are often large, heterogenous and incomplete - AI and ML methods offer new powerful solutions.
The built environment is a major contributor to global emissions, driven by construction, heating, and resource use. This seminar, organized by IIASA together with the Research Council of Finland and Aalto University, offers a platform for inspiration, networking, and mutual learning aimed at reshaping this trajectory toward more sustainable solutions.
From 16-26 June 2025, global climate leaders will gather in Bonn for the 62nd session of the UNFCCC Subsidiary Bodies (SB62), laying the groundwork for COP30 in Belém. As an international leader in systems analysis and climate research, IIASA is actively contributing to global climate discussions at the event.
Daniel Huppmann joins Martin Puntigam and the Science Busters for a special live podcast recording (in German), held in collaboration with the Austrian Panel on Climate Change (APCC) to mark the release of the Second Austrian Assessment Report on Climate Change (AAR2).
IIASA Director General Hans Joachim (John) Schellnhuber will participate in the upcoming MOVE Conference 2025, a leading event dedicated to sustainability and strategic communication in Germany. As a renowned climate scientist and systems thinker, Schellnhuber is set to deliver the closing keynote, providing a powerful finale to what promises to be a dynamic and inspiring conference.
IIASA, UKRI and the Royal Society bring together scientific leaders from the UK and IIASA's global networks to strengthen the UK’s strategic engagement with IIASA across science, policy, and diplomacy, identifying high-impact collaborative opportunities to drive lasting solutions to global challenges.
The ECSA 2026 conference is framed around the notion of Citizen Science bridging Centre and Periphery. This theme will explore the diversity of contexts in which citizen science unfolds. Scholars, practitioners, and community actors are welcome to assess the state of the field, explore emerging directions, and imagine its future potential.
At the Upper Austria Climate Summit 2025: Act Today, Live Well Tomorrow, Thomas Schinko will deliver a keynote on the science-policy interface in climate risk management and adaptation. His talk will focus on how scientific knowledge can inform concrete, effective policies at local and regional levels, bridging the gap between research, policy, and practical action.
