“Climate Change at the Center of Multiple Crises: From Local to Global”
October 14-16, 2026
Climate change lies at the heart of "multiple crises" that evolve through mutual interactions with disasters, migration, food, water, energy security, inequalities, and governance challenges. While this process exerts increasing pressure on existing policy instruments and administrative capacities, it positions the local level as the primary frontier for risk contact and implementation.
The Antalya International Science Forum – ANISF 2026 aims to address climate change within the perspective of multiple crises, facilitating a collective discussion on global structural issues alongside locally developed policies, practices, and adaptation strategies. Submissions based on interdisciplinary studies, comparative analyses, and field research from diverse geographies are particularly encouraged.
