Climate change is the defining issue of our time. From droughts to wildfires to catastrophic floods, the impacts of climate change are global in scope and unprecedented in scale. Without drastic action today, adapting to these impacts in the future will be more difficult and costly. Pakistan contributes less than one percent in global greenhouse gas emissions, but it is one of the top ten countries that are most vulnerable to climate change. The country recently got drenched in floods and witnessed the detrimental impact of climate change. Reckoning the massive impact of climate change upon states and societies, the University of Central Punjab (UCP) is organizing a conference on Climate Change: Challenges and Responses (IC4R). It is an effort to bring together researchers and academicians on a platform to raise awareness and understanding about the challenges posed by climate change to developing states. It will help to identify the policy recommendation that needs to be adopted to achieve the climate targets with reference to national security, social impact, mental health, and global economy. The Conference aims to unite national and international researchers working on different aspects of climate change at a common platform in order to build an epistemic community where we can make linkages across disciplinary, geographic and cultural boundaries.
