Integrated Earth System Research Conference 2022 – From Vision to Implementation

Integrated Earth System Research Conference 2022

From Vision to Implementation

8th to 9th November 2022
Potsdam (GER), Telegrafenberg, House H

This first conference on ‘Integrated Earth System Research’ is dedicated to scientific advances towards a coherent understanding of the increasing human impacts on the Earth system, their societal consequences, and respective governance challenges. It brings together researchers from the natural, engineering and social sciences as well as the humanities for targeted dialogue and to intensify research collaboration.

Integrated Earth system research puts particular emphasis on:

• Approaches reaching across spatial and temporal scales and societal levels involving both the biophysical Earth system and the societal world with their dynamic interdependencies,
• Research-based reasoning of evaluation references such as planetary boundaries and planetary justice, and means of their societal negotiation, implementation and monitoring,
• Transformative approaches covering interrelated Earth system and societal world knowledge, research-based target knowledge and sustainability transformation knowledge.

The conference responds to observations and projections clearly depicting that securing a
habitable Earth critically depends on societal decisions and actions in the near future. The
unique coordination and transformation tasks require integrated scientific support for society towards a more sustainable Anthropocene.
The event combines keynotes and impulse talks of internationally and nationally renowned scientists and poster presentations with dialogue phases and an in-depth world café involving all participants.

The event will be held in presence. In addition, there will be an opportunity for virtual access.
