Virtual workshop on Values, Choices and Uncertainties in Climate Modelling
Organised by an interdisciplinary team of researchers at Stockholm University and KTH, we will bring together scientific and philosophical expertise with a range of short keynote talks followed by in-group discussions with a limited number of participants.
Please sign up using this form. If you would like to join the discussions (day 2) in addition to the talks (day 1 and/or 2), please also add a sentence motivating your interest by Feb 1 2021 when prompted in the next step.
