In conjunction with the Earth System Governance annual conference, taking place in Nairobi, Kenya from 07-10 December 2016, we would like to announce a pre-conference event for early career researchers interested in earth system governance. This one day event will explore the challenges and opportunities for developing a career in earth system governance research, addressing complex topics and societal inequalities. In this context, we will also discuss the contributions that early career researchers make to new directions in Earth System Governance.
The session will include keynote addresses from thought leaders in the field of earth system governance and discussion sessions to discuss challenges and opportunities moving forward as individual researchers and as a community. The format is focused on creating interactive opportunities for early career researchers to engage with each other and with senior faculty within the Earth System Governance network.
