The International Workshop on The Economics of Adaptation to Climate Change is organised by the International Center for Climate Governance (ICCG) – an initiative related to Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei (FEEM) and Fondazione Giorgio Cini (FGC) – in cooperation with the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). It will be held in Venice, on April 2nd-3rd, 2009, and will take place in the magnificent scenario of the Fondazione Giorgio Cini.
The aim of this workshop is to gather leading researchers actively engaged in the study of the economics of adaptation to climate change to critically review the methodologies used in their analysis and to evaluate further developments or new approaches that would make it possible to address questions that still remain unanswered. Particular emphasis will be given to the long/short term and local/economy-wide dimensions of adaptation strategies and to new methodologies that are capable of addressing the shortcomings of the first generation of studies on adaptation.
