Sustainable Development researcher Reem Alhaddadin will participate in the third Planetary Security Conference on 12 and 13 December in The Hague. The theme of this year's conference is "From Analysis to Action". The goal of the conference is to strengthen the knowledge-policy interface by consolidating the community of practice on planetary security.
Climate-related risks are increasingly recognised as a key factor - and at times a key driver - of human insecurity and even conflict. The topic has been on the agenda at the highest levels of international politics and diplomacy. The Planetary Security Initiative (PSI) aims to spur this momentum from increasing awareness to deepening knowledge and, most importantly, to catalysing action to reduce the risks emanating from climate change and other environmental stresses.
