Training for IFS Probationers

Date:  May 12 - 13, 2015 

Venue: Centre for Science & Environment, 41 Tughlaqabad Institutional Area, New Delhi 110062

The Climate Change training programme for IFS probationers will be on May 12th and May 13th of 2015.  This is being designed as an intensive and highly interactive course to expose the participants to the current challenges and issues on the subject such as:

Will the world manage to prevent run-away climate change? What are the countries doing and should be doing with regard to their INDCs? What must be the essential components of the new climate agreement? What challenges and vulnerabilities does India face? What programmes and policies does India have to deal with climate change?  The course will also expose participants to related issues, such as adaptation and short term climate pollutants.

The timing of the course is important, given that the climate negotiations process under UNFCCC is fast approaching a crucial deadline, when the world meets in Paris later this year to agree to climate actions, especially on the national climate action plans, ‘Intended Nationally Determined Contributions’(INDCs) as provided for in the 2014 Lima climate Summit.

Below is the tentative agenda for the 2 day event. We will be updating the page with more information and names of speakers in the coming few weeks
