It has been widely acknowledged that the impacts of climate change and climate policy reveal the enduring legacies of colonialism. But what about climate science itself?
We invite you to join us on Zoom on February 27, 2026, at 12:30 PM UTC, to celebrate the release of the first free online resource on the historical links between Climate Science and Colonialism and their current-day manifestations – and why and how we must do better.
This is the inaugural pilot version of a two-year project based on video talks by scholarly experts from around the world. Intended for high school and college educators, scientists, scholars, activists and concerned citizens, this collection of curated resources is brought to you by the My Climate Risk Education Working Group in collaboration with MCR’s Himalayan Hub and The Pearl Hub.
An Educator’s Guide to Climate Science & Colonialism
Date and Time: February 27, Friday, 12:30 PM UTC.

The APARC (Atmospheric Processes and their Role in Climate) Core Project will hold its General Assembly in Pune (India) at the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology and online, from 12–16 October 2026. An Early Career Researcher (ECR) event will be organized on 11 October 2026 at IITM, Pune, specifically for early career researchers and students.
Every four years, the APARC General Asssembly brings together a large community of scientists from around the world to share research, recognize achievements, identify gaps, and plan how APARC scientists can address the needs of science and society in the years to come.
Important Dates
- 12 January: Registration and abstract submission opens
- 30 April: Deadline for registration and abstract submission
- 12 June: Abstract acceptance

The GEWEX Global Land-Atmosphere System Studies Panel (GLASS) will hold its first Pan-GLASS Conference, “Back to the Drawing Board: From Fundamentals to Improved Models of the Coupled Land-Atmosphere System” (Pan-GLASS 2026) in Stuttgart (Germany) from 6–9 July 2026.
Pan-GLASS 2026 will bring together experts on Earth system, weather, and climate research, soil and vegetation processes, surface fluxes, planetary boundary layer transport processes, clouds and precipitation, and machine learning. At the conference, observationalists, theoreticians, and modelers will join to discuss the key issues of land-atmosphere science.
Pan-GLASS 2026 will be primarily an in-person event.
Important Dates
- 31 January: Deadline for travel support request and ECR competition application
- 28 February: Deadline for abstract submission
- 30 April: Deadline for Early Bird registration

The World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) invites applications for the position of Director of the International Project Office for Coordinated Regional Downscaling Experiment (CORDEX-IPOC), to be hosted jointly by the European Space Agency (ESA) and University of Cape Town (UCT).
CORDEX goals are:
- To better understand relevant regional/local climate phenomena, their variability and changes, through downscaling.
- To evaluate and improve regional climate downscaling models and techniques
- To produce coordinated sets of regional downscaled projections worldwide
- To foster communication and knowledge exchange with users of regional climate information
The Director leads the international project office ensuring that it operates efficiently to actively serve the needs of CORDEX and its global community, in alignment with and under the guidance of the CORDEX Science Advisory Team (SAT).
To know more about the position and to apply, see the details available in the call. Application closing date: February 13, 2026
