Room: Vingen 1+2
Time: 14.00-15.30
Session chairs: Prof. Jessica Coria (University of Gothenburg), Dr. Viktor Elliot (University of Gothenburg)
In this session, we will explore the effects of existing and proposed policies aimed at addressing climate change. Throughout the event, we will showcase four diverse papers delving into the practical dimensions of climate policy and its influence on our global future. Topics will encompass the evolution, impact, and effectiveness of climate policies on local, regional, and international scales. We actively discuss and scrutinize the intricate interplay between policy formulation, implementation, and adaptation. From assessing the efficacy of current policies to envisioning novel solutions, this session will serve as a catalyst for insightful discourse, fostering collaboration and innovation in the realm of climate policy.
