Europe and Central Asia are linked by decades of commodity trade, but also by developing climate cooperation. Yet Central Asia plays a limited role in the European public debate on global climate change and energy transition. Both global and local energy transitions pose significant challenges for Central Asia, given its rapidly growing population, ageing infrastructure, heavy dependence on fossil fuels and climate change. At the same time, the transition to renewable energy and the development of hydrogen production and net zero value chains offer new opportunities for all countries in the region. The conference is designed to attract a broad audience, including researchers, policy makers and members of civil society.

This JIRD Special Forum Discussion by UKRAINE-PLUS will aim to critically reflect on individual, institutional and disciplinary stratification and authority in debates of and about war.

Challenges and prospects in research & innovation for the Green Deal

The purpose of this multi-disciplinary Summer School is to examine different aspects of Ukraine’s society and societal dynamics.

This presentation analyses how the war in Ukraine affects Central Asia, a region that is historically, politically and economically tied to Russia.

The consequences of climate change are increasingly felt across the world, and Russia is no exception.
