An extraordinary conference organized jointly by IDDRI, the University of Exeter and the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars
Presentation:
For the first time, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) will focus on human security in its assessment report to be published in 2014. On the occasion of this conference, Iddri, in collaboration with the University of Exeter and the Wilson Center, will bring together researchers and specialist practitioners in security issues to take stock of these emerging risks. How will climate change transform major security issues? What will be the impacts on civil and military conflicts, on food security or energy? What will be the new challenges ahead for humanitarian organizations and military forces?
