From October 31 to November 12, the world will gather in Glasgow for the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) 26^th Session of the Conference of the Parties (COP26) to discuss and negotiate more ambitious action to meet the Paris Agreement commitments. On behalf of the University of ��ݮ��Ƶ community, the Interdisciplinary Centre on Climate Change (IC3) will lead a virtual delegation to COP26 to engage with governments and non-government observers from around the world. Graduate student delegate applications are now open. 

Meet the winners of the spring 2021 Concept Innovation Stream. Congratulations to the top three teams: CliMate, B.E.A.N.S. and PURwater Initiative.

Climate change poses significant risks to water security in urban settings. Addressing this complex challenge requires collaboration and the incorporation of knowledge and expertise from various disciplines. The University of ��ݮ��Ƶ’s Water Institute (WI) and Interdisciplinary Centre on Climate Change (IC3) are advancing these efforts by delivering a uniquely designed, three-week virtual summer school - Climate Change and Water Security in Urbanized Watersheds: An Interdisciplinary Perspective.

The University of ��ݮ��Ƶ has launched its first Environmental Sustainability Strategy (PDF) and it was clear that it would take a community to make this happen. 

You can help make campus more sustainable. Meet the team on a mission to green our home away from home and find out how you can get involved. 

Unpacking the international governance framework of the Conference of the Parties () to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (). Moderated by ��ݮ��Ƶ Professor Ian Rowlands, the discussion explored how COP fits into the global climate change governance system, and featured guest speakers who shared their own COP experiences.

Fighting against the harmful effects of climate change can take many different forms. Reducing, reusing, and recycling are helpful and have been staples of eco-friendly campaigns for decades, but with technological advances and an increased urgency we as a species must do more.

IC3 has teamed up with U��ݮ��Ƶ's Concept to offer grant funding for business ideas aimed at solving climate change problems. This funding will be awarded to student teams to directly support innovation and entrepreneurship focused on climate solutions.

U��ݮ��Ƶ students from the faculty of Engineering and Environment hosted a recent webinar presented by the Interdisciplinary Centre on Climate Change (IC3) and Faculty of Health. The webinar “The impacts of climate change on public health: Opportunities to mitigate risk” was held on February 10, 2021.

U��ݮ��Ƶ students discussed the topic of toxic algal blooms in a recent webinar presented by the Interdisciplinary Centre on Climate Change (IC3) and Faculty of Health. The webinar “Toxic Algal Blooms – Implications of Climate Change on Frequency and Prevention in Water Systems” was held on January 27, 2021.

The Interdisciplinary Centre on Climate Change (IC3) is excited to partner with U��ݮ��Ƶ's and Problem Lab to launch the Climate Innovation Discovery Stream. It’s your time, be a change maker: join the Climate Innovation Discovery Stream!
