5th Annual Scientific Workshop on Climate and Atmosphere Research & Innovation in the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle East (EMME) region
The Climate and Atmosphere Research Center (CARE-C) of the Cyprus Institute, and its Advanced Partners, are organizing the 5th Annual Scientific Workshop on Climate and Atmosphere Research & Innovation in the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle East (EMME) region, on 25 November 2026.
This one-day online event aims to bring together the international scientific community to discuss new developments, and discuss the challenges, impacts, and possible solutions related to climate change and air pollution in the EMME region.
As such, the workshop will provide a unique opportunity for networking by allowing participants to connect with researchers, scientists, and innovators with shared interests, enhance regional collaboration, increase visibility on important scientific results relevant to the EMME, and contribute to enhancing national capacities for addressing the climate crisis.
This workshop also aims to provide a forum for signposting opportunities for collaboration on competitive calls and other relevant activities that can support the international community in working together more closely to address climate change impacts and challenges.
Who is it for
