Research Group on
Environment and Climate
An interdisciplinary perspective
on climate impacts, risks and adaptation
in mountainous regions
1. This is long thread with personal thoughts & ideas on how to revert male dominance ... in scientific events. I have Brazil and Latino-America in my mind right now, but this can apply everywhere. If you feel this is useful, join the conversation & help me spread ideas far and wide.
Has #COP26 established a firm basis for the implementation of the #ParisAgreement? How ... will the commitments made impact the #emissionsgap?
This talk on 8 Dec by @AxelMichaelowa of @PerspectivesCC & @UZH_en will explore these issues.

What we do
The EClim group investigates risks, impacts and adaptation options to climate change, focusing on mountain regions and its people throughout the world.
Our research integrates natural and social science disciplines to understand how environmental and socio-environmental systems respond to climate change.
We aim to produce actionable and solution-oriented knowledge, and we collaborate with stakeholders from practice and policy.
Who we are
Based at the Department of Geography of the University of Zurich and the Department of Geosciences of the University of Fribourg (Switzerland), we are a multi-disciplinary team. We are geographers, climate scientists and social scientists, who bring experience and expertise in climate change adaptation, disaster risk reduction, climate policy advice and capacity building.
Where we work
Our group has research collaborations across the globe and conducts research with a focus in the Andes, the Alps, the Himalayas, and Central Asia. Our work is multi-disciplinary and cross-sectoral, ranging from local to regional to global scale.
