IIASA Scientists have been invited to a workshop to explore how to improve the representation and usability of socio-political factors in the SSPs.

Ensuring wellbeing and access to essential and social services is why society requires materials and energy. The seminar organized by IIASA and RITE discussed different aspects of technological, social, and infrastructural innovations that can deeply reduce demand for energy and stimulate a just transition to net-zero societies.

Co-organized by the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA), the Research Institute of Innovative Technology for the Earth (RITE), and Development Alternatives (DA) under the umbrella of EDITS, the event took place on November 10, 2022, as an official side-event of the UNFCCC COP27. The high-level meeting addressed innovations for energy demand reduction, decarbonization of the urban environment and the construction sector, and pathways toward a net-zero society.

The A1 Digital Life Summit 2022 will convene people to discuss about digital solutions for climate change. Charlie Wilson, Professor of Energy & Climate Change of the Oxford University and Visiting Research Scholar at IIASA (ECE), will participate as a panelist in the Panel Discussion.

NGFS presents the third vintage of climate scenarios for forward looking climate risks assessment during two webinars on the 20^th and 21^th September.

IIASA and RITE co-organized an expert meeting in the framework of the Energy Demand changes Induced by Technological and Social innovations (EDITS) network 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.

IIASA researchers will participate in the European Geosciences Union (EGU) 2022  conference presenting research on climate change, risk and resilience, energy, citizen science, and more.

We are happy to announce the winner of the EDITS-ARTS Competition. The first prize goes to Futuregram2050, who created a powerful 2-minute video to portray a positive transformative future and has clearly adhered to the three evaluation criteria. The production has a compelling narrative that presents a balance between having access to modern technologies and services, using modern digital solutions, while at the same time also willing to limit their demand.  

Partners in the ENGAGE project to present new research results to Asian stakeholders

Bringing best practice policies of climate mitigation and Sustainable Development Goals to Integrated Assessment Model scenarios

The International Committee on New Integrated Climate Change Assessment Scenarios (ICONICS) continues its series of webinars to discuss recent work on the Climate Change Scenarios Framework.

Webinar on a sustainable development pathway for climate action within the UN 2030 Agenda

Energy Demand changes Induced by Technological and Social innovations (EDITS) side-event at COP26 as part of the Japan Pavilion. The event presented the frontiers in energy and material demand knowledge, the role of digitalization, innovation and equity efforts in a deep social, economic and technological transformation of energy demand. We presented recent work from the EDITS network, and discussed how a demand-side transition can contribute to rapid and successful climate change mitigation towards a 1.5°C pathway.  

IIASA and the Energy Analysis and Policy (EAP) program at the University of Wisconsin-Madison will host a webinar to discuss the outcomes of COP26 and implications for climate action around the world.
