The Europaeum held its first full event linked to Geographers in Paris last month, staging a highly successful and very lively graduate workshop on the Lessons in European Diplomacy arising from the politics and economics of the current Climate Change debates. Of course, as all events tend to be multi-disciplinary, geographical themes have regularly cropped up - for example in our summer schools on the future of nation-state, or our event looking at borders in Europe.

Graduate Workshop: The Politics and Economics of Climate Change - Lessons for European diplomacy
The Europaeum organised a graduate research workshop on Risks from Climate Change: Lessons in global diplomacy hosted by the University of Paris I Panthéon-Sorbonne. This three-day programme investigated the European and international approaches to climate change politics, focusing on its political economy, geography and diplomacy. In the aftermath of the failure of the 2009 Copenhagen climate change conference (COP15) and weeks to the new round of international negotiations in Cancun (COP16), participants will meet to review the key issues in reaching a binding and global treaty on climate change. Speakers included Pierre Beckouche, professor of physical geography, Paris 1, Lydie Goeldner-Gianella, lecturer, Paris 1, and speakers from the OECD and UN.
