About
The Duke Center on Risk invites scholars across Duke to take part in the sixth in a series of conversations on risk as part of an ongoing initiative to engage scholars across Duke who are thinking about risk in any aspect of their teaching or research. Several Duke researchers will each give very short "lightning talks” about challenging issues of climate risk in their fields, how they are addressing these issues, and the kinds of collaborations they would welcome. This conversation will help contribute to the Duke Climate Commitment launched in September.
Coffee and desserts will be provided.
