GEO Mountains Workshop: Interdisciplinary Monitoring, Data, and Capacity Sharing Across the Hindu Kush HimalayaKathmandu, Nepal
From: 06.11.2023 to: 08.11.2023This event is one of a series of engagements that GEO Mountains is undertaking during 2023 under the Adaptation at Altitude Programme. The primary aim of the workshop, is to provide a platform to bring together data providers and data users from a range of disciplines related to climate change and its impacts on environmental, ecological, and social systems across the Hindu Kush Himalaya (HKH) region with a view to ultimately informing effective climate change adaptation solutions. The aims of the workshops are to:
Expected participants include scientists and practitioners working on in situ monitoring (across multiple disciplines), remote sensing, climate modelling / reanalysis topics (e.g. downscaling and bias correction), climate change impacts modelling (e.g. on hydrology, the cryosphere, and biosphere), climate-related natural hazard and risk quantification, citizen science (across various disciplines), and societal / economic data in both research and operational contexts. If possible, some individuals responsible for the implementation of mitigation / adaptation measures and other decision-makers will also be invited. This broad list reflects the cross-disciplinary / integrated and "multi-method" remit of GEO Mountains. The event will be held in English, and will be free of charge. The number of places is limited. In-person registrations are closed, but you can still register for online participation until Monday, 23 October. The flyer of the workshop can be downloaded here.
