Adapting to Climate Change

The WUN Global Challenge on Adapting to Climate Change encapsulates a number of innovative research projects that address scientific, cultural, health and social issues.  Changes to our climate are leading to environmental changes, food and water shortages, and population displacement and migration.  Collaborative and multi-disciplinary research programs are a crucial component of our response to these emerging problems, and experts from across the globe need to work together to explore sustainable approaches to how we can best adapt to a changing climate.  Broad themes of the research include: 

• The drivers and pressures of climate change
• The states of and impacts on systems affected by climate change
• Managing a response to climate change.
