UNU-ISP and UNU-INRA, in
partnership with the University of Ghana, will organise a consultative
conference & workshop on the role of African higher education in adapting
to climate and ecosystems change. Issues discussed include the challenges to
climate and ecosystems change, identify existing programmes and priority areas
for capacity-building, and how to develop strong partnerships with African
universities to expand postgraduate research on adaptation. This initiative is
organised as part of the IR3S (Integrated Research Systems for Sustainability
Science) programme on climate change and adaptation coordinated by the
University of Tokyo, in close partnership with the Education for Sustainable
Development Africa (ESDA) project coordinated by UNU.
