Join Duke faculty in exploring this challenge—and potential solutions—on September 19-20, 2024, at a Duke Climate Collaboration Symposium hosted by the Duke Program on Climate, Resilience, and Mobility; the Duke Office of Global Affairs; and the Duke Climate Commitment.
The symposium opens on Thursday, September 19, with a keynote address by Indermit Gill (Chief Economist, World Bank Group) and a panel focused on building resilience to climate change and the likely effects of these efforts on human mobility. The expert panelists will also discuss the potential for collaboration between NGOs, IGOs, government agencies, think tanks and academic researchers to enhance the knowledge frontier and improve policy response on these issues.
