Hello All,

The first webinar was appreciated by all the participants, and they were able to bring in their knowledge based on their research experience in fields related to climate change. The unanimous decision was to dive further into the topic in the 2nd session, with the help of a reading list.
The second webinar will carry forward from the previous discussion on –

• What defines climate change
• How to look at inequality, specifically as an effect of climate change phenomena
• Timespan to consider to look at longitudinal impacts (the past ten years)
