The UK Embassy and SEI are co-organizing a dissemination event as part of CASCADES project. The event will gather experts and policy-makers to discuss how Sweden can build resilience to cascading climate risks.

The impacts of COVID and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine have sent shockwaves through international supply chains, and across sectors. As similar “cascading” risks are expected to result from climate change – the event focuses on what these risks are, and how Swedish and European actors can build resilience.
Discussion points can include:
The event will showcase the results of a 4-year Horizon 2020 European research programme CASCADES, which assessed the risks to Europe from climate change impacts in other parts of the world via trade and finance networks, and via foreign policy, development and security risks.
SEI is issuing invitations for this event and withholds the right to curate the participant list.
If this event is relevant to you and your organisation’s work, you may contact Magnus Benzie to express your interest in attending. SEI will only notify those who have been selected.
