The UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change recently predicted that global average temperatures will rise 1.5 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels in the mid-2030s. Over the last decades, a global network of scholars, policy makers, activists, and others have organized to offer ways to mitigate and even reverse the effects of climate change. What offramps can these solutions and movements offer our collective humanity? “Eurasian Environments” seeks to provide some reflections to mark the UN’s 2024 Climate Change Conference in Baku, Azerbaijan. This series will examine social justice and sustainability efforts to address climate change by putting scholars of Eurasia in conversation with their peers specializing on Africa, the Americas, Asia, and Europe. The series will comprise six events that will illuminate the challenges and possible solutions to climate change in Eurasia in regional and global contexts. This event is part of the Eurasian Environments: Climate Justice and Sustainability in Global Context series.

The Graduate Organization for the Study of Europe and Central Asia is happy to announce its 22nd Graduate Student Conference, Navigating Global Challenges: Eurasian Innovation and Local Solutions, and is now accepting proposals.
Russia, Eastern Europe, and Central Asia are regions where global challenges intersect with local context, leading to distinctive solutions informed by unique historical, cultural, and geopolitical contexts. We invite students to explore how these regions offer innovative solutions to address global solutions. We seek papers that highlight the creative, adaptive, and diverse ways these regions confront the issues of the 21st century—from policy responses to cultural adaptations and technological innovations.
Potential topics may include, but are not limited to:
● What innovative local solutions have emerged in response to global crises?
● How have Eurasian countries developed localized public health responses to global pandemics, and what lessons can be applied to future crises?
● How have nations leveraged and responded to emerging digital technologies?
● How are innovative water management practices being implemented in Eurasia?
● What role do historical experiences in the region play in shaping current responses to global challenges?
● How do local institutions and cultural practices impact policy and priorities?
● What role does diplomatic engagement play in shaping regional security and cooperation in Eurasia?
The submission deadline is November 22, 2024. Please submit an abstract (300 words or less) and a CV (max 2 pages) to info.goseca@gmail.com. Accepted papers will be notified by January 3.
