People and Climate Change: Vulnerability, Adaptation, Social Justice

November 18, 2016
8:00 am - 6:00 pm
Hillman Hall’s Clark-Fox Forum

Please join us on November 18, 2016 at Washington University in St. Louis for a symposium on the human impacts of climate change, the social responses necessary for transformational solutions, and the policy implications of such solutions.

Key speakers include experts on flooding, drought, heat, urbanization, adaptation, and indigenous health—representing research from the United States and other, various parts of the world.

Participants will compare existing knowledge on vulnerability and adaptation; identify where new knowledge is needed and chart a research agenda; set ambitious yet reachable social policy goals; and develop a strategy for reaching those goals.
