Joint TRICUSO and OceanICU Webinar │ Unpacking the IPCC

Register for the webinar here.

Established in 1988, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is a United Nations body for assessing the science related to climate change. Its assessment reports are compiled by leading scientists and are endorsed worldwide by member governments and scientists. However, its complex process can seem elusive and its requirements from scientists laborious and unpaid.

What’s the real story? This webinar will unpack the process—outlining how it works and how it helps the scientific community—from the perspective of previous authors and newly elected authors.

We will explore commonly pondered questions, such as:
How are the reports used?
How do they feed into policy?
What are the personal motivations for scientists willing to invest the necessary time and effort to contribute?

The panel discussion will be followed by a Q&A with the audience so if you’ve ever had a burning question, this will be a forum to ask.

Can’t make the date? Register anyway and you will be sent a link to the video recording.
