Open call for contributions to the International Symposium on ICE IN A SUSTAINABLE SOCIETY (ISS)


The abstract submission period is open for the International Symposium on ICE IN A SUSTAINABLE SOCIETY (ISS). Participants wishing to present their works at the symposium organized by The International Glaciological Society (IGS) and the Basque Centre for Climate Change (BC3) together with UPV/EHU may submit an abstract by 4 March 2022.

The International Symposium on ICE IN A SUSTAINABLE SOCIETY (ISS) will take place in Bilbao, Basque Country, on 05-10 June 2022. This one-week event will focus on the interrelations of ice in all its forms with the formal, natural, applied, and social sciences, and the humanities (see the suggested Topics).

The ISS Symposium will attract experts in climate, engineering, environment, policy, economy, philosophy, arts and other specialities that will join forces to seek inter- and transdisciplinary solutions for sustainable development and climate change awareness (see Keynote speakers & Committees).
