Conservation, Climate Change and DecolonisationDate: 29-30 October, 2019.. The purpose of this 2-day workshop is to bring together conservation and climate change social scientists from all ages and from across the world to share their most recent research tackling at least one of the three challenges highlighted above. The workshop will combine four keynote presentations, with other very short presentations, networking activities and focus group discussions to plan diverse interventions in these debates including academic publications, more popular writings, new projects and further networking opportunities. We will also identify the suitable contributions for at least one special issue, which will be submitted to a multidisciplinary environmental social sciences journal by early 2020. Further papers and possible special issues may arise from other contributors. For more information, click here. PhD opportunity at ICTA-UABRural areas in Spain are experiencing unprecedented environmental and social changes. Climate change and biodiversity loss are occurring alongside sociodemographic and economic changes, including depopulation and both the abandonment and intensification of rural landscapes. Understanding the interaction of environmental and social change, and how such interaction impinges upon rural vulnerability is paramount to devise policies that can enhance the wellbeing of rural populations whilst promoting sustainable land uses. The aim of this project is to gain a better understanding of rural vulnerability patterns in Spain, and to empower rural populations by allowing them to identify their sources of vulnerability and to discuss risk vulnerability solutions.
