Joint APARC/WCRP Workshop and Training School on AI for Climate and Weather Forecast

22 September 2025

APARC training school AI

 A 5-day joint workshop and training school (AI4Climate) to adapt capacity building to the needs of the Global South countries, using a bottom-up approach, organised by the APARC Outreach Panel in collaboration with Cheikh Anta Diop University, will be held from 24 to 28 November 2025 at Cheikh Anta Diop University in Dakar, Senegal. It is intended for early-career scientists (i.e. BSc, MSc and PhD students, as well as postdoctoral fellows) from around the world, as well as local students and researchers. Participation is limited to 30 people, and applications from early-career scientists (ECS) in the Global South are particularly encouraged. The possibility of online participation is also explored.

To know more and to apply, please visite the event website. The deadline for applications is 15 October 2025. 

Registrations Open: WCRP School on Climate Prediction Across Timescales

10 September 2025

WCRP School on Climate Prediction Across Timescales

 Registrations are open for the WCRP School on Climate Prediction Across Timescales, which will be held on 23-27 February 2026 in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

The School is designed for graduate students, postdocs, and early-career professionals working in climate and related sciences. Participants will engage in a combination of expert lectures and hands-on lab sessions using real-world data, with a focus on prediction across subseasonal to interdecadal timescales. Further details on the programme, eligibility, and application instructions are available on the ESMO Website.

04 September 2025

Tipping points

Join AIMES, the Earth Commission, Future Earth, and the WCRP’s Safe Landing Climates Lighthouse Activity for a webinar exploring the latest scientific insights on positive social tipping points and the barriers they can face. This discussion will bring together experts to examine examples and how science and policy can address them.

  • When ?  17 September 15:00-16:30 CEST
