Changes in climate that affect one area can spread to other places through various channels such as trade, foreign policies, and financial systems. These impacts can be as disruptive as the COVID-19 pandemic or the war in Ukraine. Cascading climate impacts are not easily represented in traditional analysis frameworks and need to be embedded in the wider context of social vulnerability and climate change. 

As part of the CASCADES consortium we are happy to announce that the Horizon 2020 projects CASCADES and RECEIPT will hold a joint conference – “Cross-border climate change impacts and systemic risks in Europe and beyond”. We will be there – presenting during one of the sessions.

The conference will take place October 16-18, 2023 at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research) in Germany and, partially, online. The registration has officially opened – click here to register!

The meeting aims to bring together scientists across disciplines that work on approaches to better understand, respond and adapt to cross-border climate impacts and risks.

As part of the CASCADES consortium we kindly invite you to submit your abstracts here. We look forward to seeing you there!
