| Headline: | (AERC) International Conference on Natural Resource Management, Climate Change and Economic Development in Africa: |
| Description: | The African Economic Research Consortium is hereby calling for papers for presentation at an international conference on Natural Resource Management, Climate Change and Economic Development in Africa. Papers are particularly solicited from AERC network members, but anyone with relevant experience and credentials in the topic area is invited to submit their work. Qualified women are urged to send papers, and research teams are encouraged. The scientific consensus on climate change has grown substantially in recent years. Indeed, the adverse effects of climate change are already evident, natural disasters are more frequent and more devastating, and developing countries more vulnerable. Findings of research undertaken by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) suggest that human activities are altering the climate system and will continue to do so. The Earth’s surface temperatures have increased and associated impacts on physical and biological systems are increasing. |
