A conversation with Prof. Ilan Chabay
Climate change is a complex problem at several levels. It pertains the natural world as well as individuals, communities and societies. How can the natural and social sciences help us understand it and solve it? In this episode, we explore this question with Prof. Ilan Chabay, head of Strategic Research Initiatives and International Fellowship Programs at the Institute for Advanced Sustainability Studies in Potsdam, Germany, and chair of the KLASICA international knowledge, learning, and societal change research alliance, also at the Institute.
