For our first session Professor Steven Lade from the Stockholm Resilience Centre will guide us through the essential concepts of climate resilience—one of the most pressing topics in both theory and practice today.
Steven studies the resilience of social-ecological systems, from agricultural communities to planetary systems. In this masterclass, he’ll introduce the theoretical foundations of climate risk and resilience and share examples of how resilience can be built in practice.
We will explore:
- Different types of climate risk
- Resilience definition and misconceptions
- Tipping points for accelerated climate risk
- Five essential considerations for building resilience
Task before the class
To make this session as engaging and interesting as possible, we invite you to reflect on two things before attending:
- What are your organisation’s biggest challenges regarding climate resilience?
- What climate-related risk is most relevant to your organisation right now?
