*Adapting to Climate Change: A Focus on Biodiversity in the Western
Himalayas*
Certificate Training Programme on the Interaction of Biodiversity and
Climate Change in North Western India (Himalayan Region)
*DURATION & VENUE:* The summer school will take place from *24th June – 6th
July, 2019* at the *University of Kashmir, Srinagar*, Jammu & Kashmir.
*BACKGROUND: *
This two-week programme jointly organized by the Ashoka Trust for Research
in Ecology and the Environment (ATREE) and University of Kashmir, Srinagar,
Jammu and Kashmir, delves into various concepts about biodiversity of the
Western Himalayas, the interaction of climate change and biodiversity,
hydrology, ecosystem services and functions, and social-ecological systems.
These will aid the participants in understanding the adverse role of
environmental change (synergistic effects of climate change and other
non-climatic environmental stressors) on the biodiversity and people of the
Western Himalayas.
Training will be imparted through a combination of lectures, skill building
tools, discussions on topical issues, and week-long intensive group
projects. There will be a series of special talks on a variety of important
topics and case studies pertinent to the region, as well as talks on
improving scientific writing. Reading material will be sent to the selected
participants to familiarize themselves with the topics that will be covered
in the lectures, special talks and discussions.
*OPEN FOR:*
Current post-graduate students (currently enrolled in a master’s or PhD
programme in India), research scholars and early career professionals
working with non-profits, government agencies, research institutions and
academic centres in the *Western Himalayas (applicants from Uttarakhand,
Himachal Pradesh and Kashmir only will be considered)*. We hope to maintain
an age limit of 35 years to ensure a certain level of experience, and so
that participants gain the most from the programme.
*To Apply*: http://bit.ly/SS_Apply
*APPLICATION DEADLINE:*
Deadline to apply is *31st May, 2019*.
Selected applicants will be notified directly by *7th June*,* 2019*. Our
decisions will be final.
