SUMMARY:Keynote - Assessing land-based climate solutions in IPCC assessments
DESCRIPTION:Cheikh Mbow is Director General at Centre de Suivi Ecologique\, Sénégal.\nKey messages: \n\nMany land-based adaptation and mitigation climate solutions can also combat desertification\, land degradation and enhanced food security.\nMost of the response options assessed contribute positively to sustainable development and other societal goals (high confidence). \nIPCC assessment would benefit from more efficient closing of evidence gaps. In particular\, it is critical to have better evidence on what natural climate solutions work\, under what conditions\, and why – in developing countries opportunities to lift global environmental assessments as well as evidence synthesis to the next level.\n\nFollowed by a panel on Natural climate solutions

SUMMARY:Keynote - Mapping out the evidence on the role of natural climate solutions in climate change mitigation
DESCRIPTION:Samantha Cheng is Director of Conservation Evidence at World Wildlife Fund.\nKey messages: \n\nSystematic mapping of the evidence on climate solutions is critical for efficient synthesis efforts\, the identification of evidence gaps as well as efficiently allocating scarce research funding resources\nThe evidence base for NbIs is significant and growing – with the majority assessing the relationship NBS and proxy outcomes of climate change mitigation. \nKey gaps in knowledge hamper the ability to inform ongoing and future investment and implementation at scale. \n\nFollowed by a panel on Natural climate solutions

SUMMARY:Keynote - Integrating ex-ante and ex-post evidence for effective learning in science and policy
DESCRIPTION:Massimo Tavoni is the Director of the European Institute on Economics and the Environment\, and full professor of climate economic modeling at Politecnico di Milano.\nKey messages: \n\nModel intercomparisons continue to deliver critical lines of evidence to understand the solution space and alternative pathways for reaching the climate goals.\nOur understanding of feasible pathways to net-zero emissions needs to be complemented by a sound understanding of what policies work on the ground and can bring about the change observed in models in the near-term.\nA sound understanding of climate policy needs to effectively integrate ex-ante and ex-post evidence. Such an integrated understanding should be.\n\nFollowed by a panel on Past\, Present\, Future – towards comprehensive policy analysis in the IPCC‘s 7th Assessment Report

SUMMARY:Keynote - Climate Solutions & cities: Priorities and evidence needs for the upcoming IPCC Special Report
DESCRIPTION:Winston Chow is Co-Chair of the IPCC’s Working Group II for its seventh assessment cycle\, and Professor of Urban Climate at Singapore Management University’s College of Integrative Studies.\nKey messages: \n\nLocal climate solutions have a large potential for meeting climate goals and more often than not co-align synergistically with improving human well-being & health.\nContext is particularly important in the assessment of climate solutions. Finding adequate ways to represent local contexts in a global cities assessment\, both by reflecting geospatial high resolution data and local knowledge\, is key to providing a relevant special report.\nCities are the arena where local behavioral\, infrastructural\, and technology solutions for climate change mitigation and adaptation are realized.\nThere is a key opportunity to advance the urban solutions by synthesizing the disparate solution-oriented evidence into discrete chunks of knowledge and typologies that can be easily drawn from by the IPCC author in the Special Report.\n\nFollowed by a panel on Challenges for policy learning from highly localized evidence

SUMMARY:Keynote - What Works? IPCC evidence for understanding climate policy pathways and implementation
DESCRIPTION:Jim Skea is IPCC Chair for the seventh assessment cycle\, Chair of Scotland’s Just Transition Commission and Professor of Sustainable Energy at the Imperial College London (UK).\nKey messages: \n\nIPCC is a unique science-policy interface. Progress in international policy is directly linked to the various assessments by the IPCC synthesizing the state of scientific knowledge.\nImproving our solution-oriented knowledge is increasingly important for international climate negotiations and the global stocktake.\nThe solution-oriented knowledge around pathways to keeping warming well below 2ºC needs to be complemented with a sound understanding of what policies work\, under what conditions in any way.\n\nFollowed by a panel on Towards solution-oriented IPCC assessments

SUMMARY:Keynote - Rigorous policy evaluations to support effective climate policies
DESCRIPTION:Rohini Pande is Henry Heinz II Professor of Economics and Director of the Economic Growth Center and Inclusion Economics at Yale University.\nKey messages: \n\nRigorous instrument evaluations are critical to support effective\, efficient and equitable evidence-based climate policies.\nClimate policy evaluations can help us to understand what climate solutions work\, under what conditions and why and enable accelerated learning in science and policy.\nThe climate crisis is a crisis of inequality. Solving the climate crisis without addressing these inequalities is doomed to fail.\n\nFollowed by a panel on The critical role of evidence-based policy to solve the climate crisis

DESCRIPTION:Julian Elliott is the founder of the Future Evidence Foundation (producer of Covidence) and the Alliance for Living Evidence (Alive)\, and a Professor at Cochrane Australia within Monash University’s School of Public Health and Preventive Medicine (Australia).\nKey messages: \n\nThe evidence ecosystem in health has not always been as we know it today. It has undergone a fundamental transformation over the past decades\nIt is a good moment in time for change as fundamental barriers to evidence synthesis are torn down through technologies and fundamental innovation\nLeapfrogging towards the living evidence model: learning on climate solutions in quasi-real-time\n\nFollowed by a panel on Towards a rigorous knowledge base on what works for evidence-based climate policies and enhanced IPCC assessments

SUMMARY:Keynote - Towards enhanced evidence synthesis: learning from the health science
DESCRIPTION:Andrew Haines is a Professor of Environmental Change and Public Health at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine\nKey messages: \n\nRigorous evidence synthesis is crucial for effective\, efficient\, and equitable climate action that safeguards both human and planetary health.\nClimate actions often yield significant human health co-benefits that are frequently overlooked\, emphasizing the overall gains of transitioning towards a net-zero society.\nProposals include forming a coalition of organizations\, subnational\, and national initiatives to accelerate progress towards net-zero greenhouse gas emissions. This coalition will prioritize monitoring and evaluating effects on health and greenhouse gas emissions while fostering the sharing of experiences and lessons learned.\n\nFollowed by a panel on Human health – Game changer in climate policy and evidence to action?

SUMMARY:Keynote - Climate Solutions & Health: The Lancet Countdown
DESCRIPTION:Marina Romanello is Executive Director at the Lancet Countdown: Tracking Progress on Health and Climate Change\, Climate Change and Health Researcher at the University College London.\nKey messages: \n\nClimate change causes widespread human suffering today\, affecting millions globally.\nContinued climate inaction poses high costs to human well-being\, with escalating health risks from increasing global temperatures.\nThe Lancet Countdown’s ten years of science assessments highlight the urgent need for health-centered climate action. This includes shifting the global economy to a zero-carbon footing\, presenting transformative opportunities for improving global population health.\n\nFollowed by a panel on Human health – Game changer in climate policy and evidence to action?
