Evidence is accumulating that linkages between environment and security dynamics are more important than previously thought. Governments, the public, corporations, and other organizations around the world need a clearer understanding of the related new risks and more effective responses. Columbia University’s new Environment, Peace, and Security Certification will prepare you to understand these rapidly changing connections between environment and security dynamics, and will equip you with tools for managing the risks.

During this information session, the program’s co-directors, Marc Levy, Deputy Director of the Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN) at Columbia’s Earth Institute, and Beth Fisher-Yoshida, faculty member and Academic Director of Columbia’s Negotiation and Conflict Resolution program, join faculty members Alex Fischer and Josh Fisher to outline the program’s development, experience, and expected outcomes.

6:00pm - 8:00pm

Refreshments will be served.
