This hybrid webinar is organized by International Dryland Development Commission
(IDDC), the Regional Action for Climate Change STS Japan (RACC), and the
International Center for Agriculture Research in Dry Areas (ICARDA), Ain Shams
University Arid Land Graduate Studies and Research Institute (ALARI), and Nizami
Ganjavi International Center (NGIC).
​
The meeting focuses on dynamic assessment of the impact of climate change at local and regional level in different agro-ecological zones in the dry areas, and identifying strategies for adaptation to climate change, including development of coping and adaptive capacity through advanced science in changing genetic makeup and agromanagement techniques. In addition, it aims to identify the means of enhancing coping and adaptation capacity in communities living in the dry areas. A significant effort is required to translate into action the resolutions agreed upon by world leaders in various global conventions on Climate Change, as the lack of political will so far has increased the gap in the economic wellbeing between the people living in the industrialized and the developing nations, with serious ethical and spiritual dimensions in the face of changing climate.
