This Workshop - organised by the Policy Department for Citizens’ Rights and Constitutional Affairs for the Committee on Petitions - focuses on the effects of climate change on vulnerable groups in society, such as the elderly, low-income families, and people with disabilities.
Besides looking at the impacts of climate change on social security and vulnerable groups, the workshop will also look into the role attribution science - a field of study that aims to determine which extreme weather events can be explained by or linked to climate change - can play in helping develop (social) policies for the future.
