At a time when climate anxiety and biodiversity loss dominate the global conversation, IIASA had the honor of hosting Emmanuel de Merode, Director of Virunga National Park in the Democratic Republic of Congo, for a lecture that was as sobering as it was inspiring.

A new climate initiative launched in Vorarlberg, Austria, aims to plant 50 trees for every child born in the region. The initiative, which will run under the patronage of IIASA Director General Hans Joachim (John) Schellnhuber, was introduced on 3 April in Rankweil.

IIASA Director General Hans Joachim (John) Schellnhuber was featured in the latest episode of the ORF podcast “Neues bei Neustädter” titled, Wo ist eigentlich der Klimaschutz? (Where is climate protection, actually?).
