INTERNATIONAL SCIENCE COUNCIL - IPSA WEBINAR
ON PANDEMIC POLITICS
The International Science Council (ISC) and IPSA will present a joint webinar on political science and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, entitled Pandemic Politics: What have we learned? on 24 November 2021 at 15:00 UTC.
The free webinar will be introduced with opening remarks by IPSA President, Dr. Dianne Pinderhughes, and chaired by Craig Calhoun, Professor of Social Sciences at Arizona State University.
Jane Duckett, Edward Caird Chair of Politics and Director of the Scottish Centre for China Research, will give the keynote lecture. In her presentation, Prof. Duckett will discuss how political scientists have researched the pandemic and what they have discovered so far.

3. A few days before COP26, the United Nations conference on climate change, the Pew Research Center surveys highlighted how public opinions around the world view climate change and international responses to it. People expressed widespread concern about the personal impact of global climate change and confidence in the response that international bodies and individual governments are trying to implement. The results of the panels are presented in the article Fast facts about international views of climate change as Biden attends the UN COP26 Conference ( Research Institutes on the IPSAPortal).
