Many universities across the world perform state- of-the art research on matters related to climate change, both in respect of mitigation, and adaptation. Yet, as shown by the latest 21st Conference of the Parties of the UN Convention on Climate Change (COP 21), held in Paris in December 2015, there is much room for improvements in the role played by universities in the negotiations and in influencing decision-making on a matter of such a global importance.
It is against this background that the 4th Symposium “Universities and Climate Change” is being organized by the University of Aveiro (Portugal), Manchester Metropolitan University, (UK), and HAW Hamburg, Germany, under the auspices of the International Climate Change Information and Research Programme (ICCIRP).
