Event Description

COURSE ANNOUNCEMENT: Climate Change and Food Security Nexus
(Wageningen, the Netherlands: 10-21 September, 2018)

Adaptation and mitigation as institutional change processes-Our climate is changing and communities all over the world are affected. Changing climates have severe negative impacts on natural resources and consequently on food and livelihood security. Societies consequently need to learn to cope with the changes predicted, warmer temperatures, drier soils, changes in weather extremes and rising sea levels. At different governance levels and scales, appropriate responses are needed. However in many countries the existing governance structures and processes are not suited to manage climate change and the adaptive capacity and leadership to address the challenges is often lacking.

Upon completion of the course you will:

  • have a better understanding of climate change and its impacts;
  • understand the challenges climate change governance faces and explore ways to strengthen it;
  • practice to become a more effective change manager by applying social learning techniques and tools;
  • be able to understand innovative practices for adaptation and mitigation;
  • be able to place climate change adaptation and mitigation in the context of sustainable development.
