Climate conversations
SLU Global and SLU's four Future Platforms are organising a series of Climate Conversations. There will be webinars open for anyone to join and some for SLU staff only. Please see updated events below.

One health day 9 February
SLU Future One Health is a transdisciplinary platform that stimulates and supports SLU research within One Health. On 9 February 2023 we organise a One Health Day with the aim to illustrate the multitude of SLU research that is related to One Health, discuss with actors and researchers outside of SLU on collaboration opportunities to better complete the One Health concept, attract research funding, and contributing to a sustainable future. Last day to sign up is 2 February!

We are now inviting associated events
SLU Global and SLU’s four Future Platforms, which jointly host the Climate Conversations, now welcome SLU staff to list other initiatives with a strong climate change relevancy that involve researchers at SLU and potentially external stakeholders, as associated to the Climate Conversations.
Background
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) launched its sixth assessment report in 2021 and 2022. In relation to these launches, SLU Global and SLU's four Future Platforms, SLU Future Food, SLU Future Forests, SLU Future One Health and SLU Urban Futures, joined forces and started a series of Climate Conversations - a webinar series based on research, including both internal SLU conversations and open webinars welcoming anyone interested to join.
The sixth assessment report presenting the current scientific knowledge on the physical science basis, mitigation, impacts, adaptation and vulnerability. The first part by Working group 1, got a lot of attention in Sweden and globally when it was released summer 2021. The last IPCC assessment report before 2021 came in 2014 and provided the scientific basis for the Paris Agreement.
