Climate Risk Summit, 29 September – 1 October 2021

The Summit provided a forum for discussion of climate risk topics, an opportunity to connect policy, academic and student audiences both nationally and internationally, and an occasion to build further capacity in the community of climate change experts in communicating risk effectively to different audiences.

The first two days of the Summit consisted of six interdisciplinary panel discussions with audience interaction focused on characterising climate risks and discussing resilience-building in different sectors. The final day consisted of a 4-hour workshop on the effective communication of climate-related risk to decision makers and key stakeholders.
