On behalf of the Australian Intercultural Society in partnership with Institute for Economics and Peace (IEP) and Kaldor Centre for International Refugee Law, we would like to invite you to our upcoming webinar.
Increases in population, the degradation of natural resources and climate change are increasing the occurrence of ecological events. These events will result in heightened poverty and an increased likelihood of conflict and mass migration. Research from the Institute for Economics and Peace (IEP) shows that by 2050, the global population is projected to reach 10 billion, with the larger population increases occurring in countries with the highest levels of conflict.
Join us in conversation with IEP Founder and Executive Chairman, Steve Killelea AM; Robert Glasser, Head of the ASPI Climate and Security Policy Centre; and Jane McAdam AO, Director of the Andrew & Renata Kaldor Centre for International Refugee Law at UNSW, to explore the latest findings from this year's Ecological Threat Register and explore how we can create more resilient societies better able to adapt to extreme ecological shocks, now and into the future.
This conversation is also a side event in this year's Kaldor Centre Conference 'Whose move? Addressing migration and displacement in the face of climate change', offering cutting-edge evidence, experience and expertise on this critical issue. Register now to attend any of the #Kaldor21 sessions from 19 to 21 October.
