A podcast of our event on resilient cities is now available.

To launch the policy challenge briefing "Resilient Cities", CSaP came together with the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development to organise a discussion on how cities can adapt to a changing climate.

Professor Steven Chu, a Nobel Prize winner and former US Secretary of Energy under President Obama, visited the University of Cambridge to deliver the 2014 Dr S T Lee Public Policy Lecture on energy and climate change.

CSaP's Policy Challenges Co-ordinator, Dr Moira Faul's article on the UN's global Sustainable Development Goals has been published in the International Journal of Educational Development.

“Science isn’t finished until it’s communicated”, said UK Government Chief Scientific Adviser, Sir Mark Walport, as he delivered CSaP's distinguished lecture on 17 October.

In his talk, Dr Hugh Hunt discussed ways that engineering can help in the fight against climate change.

On 8 March 2012 – the very day that the BBC declared that solar storms threatened to “wreak havoc with satellites or power grids” – many of the UK’s top risk experts were attending the CSaP conference on Risk and Uncertainty, organised in partnership with the Willis Research Network and sponsored by the IET and Lloyd’s.

The recent Icelandic eruptions have catapulted volcanologists to the forefront of policymaking. What can be done to predict these devastating eruptions? And how do we sensibly manage the risks?

CSaP was delighted to partner with the Renewable Energy and International Law network and the Global Sustainability Institute at Anglia Ruskin University for a two-day forum which convened in Cambridge on 20 and 21 June 2011.
