Climate policy debates tend to focus on reducing greenhouse gas emissions, the main driver of climate change. However, even under the most optimistic scenarios, climate change is expected to persist. This does not only cause substantial physical and economic damage, but it also threatens the livelihoods of communities worldwide.
At this year’s EconPol Annual Conference, we will explore effective adaptation strategies in response to climate change. In our high-level panel discussions, we will take an in-depth look at policy responses and innovative approaches across the EU and the Global South, while also addressing the role of migration as a potential adaptation strategy.
The keynote address will be delivered by Kurth Vandenberghe, Director-General for Climate Action at the European Commission. Panel speakers include Ibrahima Amadou Dia, Blaz Kurnik, Andrei Marcu, Johan Swinnen, and Frederick van der Ploeg.
The conference will take place on May 19, 2025, in Brussels at the Representation of the Free State of Bavaria to the EU in Brussels.
