IIASA voices webinar with IIASA researchers Katya Perez Guzman, Samir K.C., and Sylvia Tramberend is now online. Moderated by IIASA Capacity Development and Academic Training Unit Dean, Fabian Wagner, this episode explores the work of researchers in building capacity in systems analysis around the world. 

The data collected by citizen science projects increasingly has a geographic dimension, which makes them a growing source of valuable spatial information. To explore this topic in more detail, Linda See will be giving a keynote entitled ‘Citizen Science as a Key Source of Geographic Information’ at the 12^th International Conference on Geographic Information Science (GIScience 2023).

The Energy Demand changes Induced by Technological and Social innovations (EDITS) network holds its Annual Conference in Lisbon, Portugal between 6 and 10 November 2023 to further the interdisciplinary dialogue in conceptualizing, analyzing, policy making, and modeling of energy demand and its interlinkages to climate change mitigation and the SDGs.

In the framework of the IIASA 50^th Anniversary, the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) and IIASA are co-hosting a hybrid event to celebrate 20 years of China’s participation in IIASA Young Scientists Summer Program (YSSP) on 6-7 September 2023 (Beijing, China and online).

Under the title, What we want, a double bill of eco-theater* explores the potentially existential threat to human existence through the metaphors of breathing and eating while seeking a way forward. Both works, Breath and Piece of Cake, strive to counter-narratives of futility by centering stories of resilience, innovation, and interconnection. The performance will include and encourage discussions with the audience throughout the evening.

The Data for the Environment Alliance (DEAL) - a Member State-led initiative in cooperation with the United Nations Science-Policy-Business Forum on the Environment (UNSPBF) will convene the Second Scoping and Horizon Scanning Expert Meeting entitled "Towards A Big Data Revolution for the Planet", where experts will work together to scope integrated, tech empowered cross-sectoral approaches to data governance to meet multilateral environmental goals. This work is designed to provide valuable insights and help support ongoing United Nations processes.

The first two hackathons of the Open-Earth-Monitor Cyberinfrastructure project challenge young researchers to map land cover class using machine learning and to model FAPAR at a high spatial resolution. Register now and join us in this challenge from 1^st to 15^th September online!

Climate change is manifested by pronounced negative impacts on the society and ecosystems.
Increasing heat extremes, heavy precipitation events, droughts and other hazards, put a strain on the
health systems, economies, and natural environments of Europe. Therefore, understanding and
projecting future hydro-meteorological variability and occurrence of extremes, as well as their impacts
are key scientific challenges crucial to the development and implementation of sustainable management
practices and policies.

This years EAERE conference is dedicated to interdisciplinary research on the energy, environment, eco-innovations and economy and covers topics such as Natural Resources Management and Utilization, Economic Instruments for Water, Manufacturing and Energy Sectors, Ecosystem Services and Management, Cost-benefit and Cost-effectiveness Analyses, Environmental Econometrics and Methodological as well as Sustainable Development issues.

The NCGG brings together scientists, experts, decision makers and other stakeholders in the field of Climate Change with a view of supporting the development of efficient and effective technologies and policies aimed at decreasing the radiative forcing due to non-CO₂ greenhouse gases, ozone and aerosols

Join NaturaConnect’s webinar to explore different Nature Future Scenarios that will help to shape the design of a coherent and resilient TEN-N. We will discover how the Nature Future Scenarios can be translated into land use scenarios, how they can be used for identifying connectivity and conservation priorities and finally, how these could inform the design of the TEN-N.
