The overall objective of this conference is to consider strategies for
adapting to climate change, in particular to explore the potential
barriers that may limit the adaptation ability of societies and to
identify opportunities for overcoming these barriers. The conference is
aimed at researchers and practitioners with an interest in understanding
how societies adapt to climate change.
The conference will explore the following themes:
- Adapting to thresholds in physical and ecological systems;
- The role of values and culture in adaptation; and
- Governance, knowledge, and technologies for adaptation.
