Dear Colleagues, Last Call for Papers: 2nd Symposium on Universities and Climate Change and Symposium on Climate Change Policies Many universities are performing excellent research on climate change, but there are seldom opportunities to present, discuss, document and disseminate such efforts. In order to address this need, the "2nd Symposium on Universities and Climate Change: The Role of Climate Change Research and Projects in Fostering Climate Action" is being organised. It will be held in London, United Kingdom, on 12th - 13th December 2017. The deadline for the submission of abstracts has been extended to 5th May 2017. Further details can be seen at: https://www.haw-hamburg.de/en/ftz-als/events/universities2017.html Also, researchers, members of government offices and NGOs undertaking research and practical initiatives on climate change policy may wish to use the opportunity offered by the "World Symposium on Climate Change Policies and Governance", to be held in Manchester, UK, on 12th - 14th September 2017. The deadline for the submission of abstracts has been extended to 5th May 2017. Further details can be seen at: https://www.haw-hamburg.de/en/ftz-nk/events/policies2017.html Rgds, Walter Leal
