Kick-Off Session Climate Culture

October 5 2023 marked the kick-off for the research project “Revisiting Climate-Culture: Studying Locally-led Knowledge and Adaptation Practices for Climate Change and development in Asia”, organized by Dr. Bishawjit Mallick. The multi-disciplinary and international team of collaborators spans 7 countries: India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Vietnam, Taiwan, Australia, The USA, and The Netherlands. Therefore, the session was held in hybrid form with attendees present on location and though a livestream connection. Dr. Mallick introduced the overarching question of the research project as following: How far are climate change-related knowledge and adaptation practices (climate-cultures) globally transferable and applicable? A brainstorming session was included to discuss targets, requirements and content of the project. Afterwards, there was space for open discussion and drinks.
