In the mirror : Exchanges between regional networks for downscaled climate research and sustainable transition knowledge creation

The Regional Research Network Futurs-ACT, Climate Change Center Austria and Ouranos invite you to a webinar on April 26th, 2022 at 3pm (CET).

This first webinar will allow the scientific coordinators to present this initiative to a broader community of stakeholders engaged in similar initiatives and to initiate the exercise in collective reflection. In what context did each of these organizations take shape? How do they downscale climate research—historically developed at the global scale—to contribute to actionable knowledge at a more local level? What level of support and coordination do they have with key stakeholders (policymakers, business leaders, civil society, etc.) ? And finally, where do each of these organizations see themselves in their respective journeys – what are their dreams or pet projects for the near and distant future?

Audience
Personnel of scientific or multi-actor (“boundary”) organizations working on climate change adaptation and anticipation at the science-policy-society interface.
