The 2020s are the critical and decisive decade for climate change where we will need to reduce emissions to limit climate change and prepare for the unavoidable impacts. Impacts of climate change are pervasive for water issues and go beyond the problems of floods and droughts. At the COP26 meeting in Glasgow, there was a renewed attempt at highlighting the role of water in addressing climate change. The need for interdisciplinary solutions across a range of cross-cutting problems is only now appreciated. In this context, we invite you to this interdisciplinary conference held in Norwich from noon on 22nd June until 3:30 pm 23rd June 2022, hosted by the University of East Anglia’s Water Security Research Centre, the Anglian Centre for Water Studies, and the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research. Over this two-day event, we will share current understanding of water challenges and solutions, network across academia, industry, government and the third sector, and develop ideas and collaborations between experts to seek solutions to water challenges. Together with keynote talks, four themed sessions will focus on how climate change will impact water and health, nature-based solutions for water management, integrated assessment of adaptation options, urban-rural interdependencies, and the roles of all sectors in climate mitigation and adaptation.
