Climate Culture Kick-Off Session

Cultural dimensions of climate change adaptation raise the question of how far climate change-related knowledge and adaptation practices (hereafter ‘climate cultures’) are globally transferable and applicable.

We are thrilled to invite you to the kick-off meeting of the “Revisiting Climate-Culture: Studying Locally-led Knowledge and Adaptation Practices for Climate Change and Development in Asia.” The session will take place on 05 October 2023 and be live-streamed for broader participation. We look forward to your joining us for this exciting event, where we aim to foster collaboration and drive meaningful expertise discussion.

The program outline includes the following:

  • Welcome and introduction round
  • Project description
  • Brainstorming to outline the activities
  • Open discussion followed by drinks
