SENSE Summer Symposium / Amsterdam Conference 2007


2007 Amsterdam Conference 

24-26 May 2007

The 2007 Amsterdam Conference on the Human Dimensions of Global Environ­mental Change is the latest in the emerging series of European conferences on human dimensions research. This series began in 2001 with the first Berlin Conference on the Human Dimensions of Global Environmental Change. The 2007 Amsterdam Conference will bring about the Europeanisation of this successful conference cycle. The European conferences are mid-size annual events (much smaller than Open Meetings of IHDP or IGBP) of about 150 international participants, selected through rigorous international peer review. Each conference has a clear thematic focus that allows for intense exchange and discussion. Conference themes are selected with a view to bringing new and emerging topics to the European and global debate, thus ensuring the con­tinuous innovative thrust of the conference series. Special conference features, in­cluding panels on teaching and targeted programmes for doctoral students, add to its innovative character.

Hosts

The 2007 Amsterdam Conference is co-hosted by the Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency (MNP), the Netherlands Research School for Socio-Economic and Natural Sciences of the Environment (SENSE), the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research, AIRD Environment Canada, and four European research programmes: ADAM, NeWater, REFGOV, and Glogov.org. The conference is endorsed by the International Human Dimensions Programme on Global Environmental Change (IHDP) and by the World Academy of Art and Science.
