We are please to welcome Dr Elisabeth Gilmore, Bristol Next Generation Visiting Researcher, for a seminar on "Climate change and adaptation: Unpacking institutions and governance".

Abstract:

Dr Gilmore works at the intersection of technology, society, and policy to better understand and identify solutions to the complex problems posed by climate change and other local to global environmental issues. Her research has focused on developing scenarios for integrated assessments of climate change, modelling human responses to environmental changes, and technological and societal transformations for mitigation and adaptation to climate change. She integrates tools and knowledge across engineering, social and economic sciences, and public policy. Dr Gilmore was instrumental in the development of the Summary for policy makers of the 6AR of the IPCC WGII. She will share her wealth of experience working on climate change adaptation, specifically in the context of economics and policy of climate change.
