We are excited to announce that RFF will co-host this September’s 2024 SRM Social Science Workshop in collaboration with the Harvard Solar Geoengineering Research Program. As a reminder, the deadline to submit (brief) workshop presentation proposals is Friday, *May 24, 2024*. Research in progress is very welcome. Please share this call for presentations within your networks. Best, Kristin Hayes *Save the Date and Call for Workshop Presentation Proposals* *RFF-Harvard 2024 SRM Social Science Workshop: Cooperative vs. Non-Cooperative Interventions* For several years, Resources for the Future (RFF) and Harvard’s Solar Geoengineering Research Program (SGRP) have sought to improve understanding of the social and economic dimensions of solar radiation modification (SRM) as a potential contribution to broader efforts to reduce climate change risk. For more information on RFF’s ongoing work in this area, including sponsored international research, public workshops, blogs, and podcasts, visit RFF’s website. <https://www.rff.org/topics/comprehensive-climate-strategies/solar-geoengineering/> Learn more about the Harvard Solar Geoengineering Research Program here <https://geoengineering.environment.harvard.edu>. RFF and SGRP invite individuals to present research at our *“RFF-Harvard 2024 SRM Social Science Workshop: Cooperative vs. Non-Cooperative Interventions,” *to be held September 19-20, 2024, in Washington, DC. We encourage workshop presentation submissions that draw from a rich array of social science disciplines including political science, economics, public policy, international affairs, sociology, anthropology, philosophy and ethics, and more. Applications from researchers or research teams from the Global South are encouraged. Proposals from graduate students, in addition to established researchers, are also welcome. We are particularly interested in presentation proposals that may fall under two broad themes: (1) internationally cooperative efforts on SRM, and (2) the risks and implications of non-cooperative SRM development or deployment. A non-exhaustive list of sample topics includes: Cooperative SRM efforts: · SRM in the larger climate change policy portfolio (with mitigation, CDR, and adaptation) and challenges for design; · The moral hazard risk as both a bottom-up individual behavioral phenomenon, as well as a top-down political and policy challenge; · Analyses of current global policies, political developments, or emerging norms on SRM; · Surveys of public attitudes or media coverage on SRM; and/or · Experimental evidence of behavioral aspects of SRM support. Non-cooperative deployment risks and implications: · International security and other implications and challenges of near-term, non-cooperative deployments; · Governance proposals and/or institutional design, e.g., promoting international cooperation and effective governance to detect and monitor a potential unilateral deployment, or prevent such a deployment from happening; and/or · Integrating social science considerations into the next generation of climate scenario development and climate models. Travel support is available for accepted presenters who may need such funding. If this applies, please indicate so in your application.

We expect to finalize the agenda in late spring/early summer. Please contact Tyler Felgenhauer ([email protected]) or Kristin Hayes ([email protected]) with any questions. Please share and advertise this call within your networks. ------------------------------ [KG1] <#m_-5117095051046949287_m_-5250880622685017769_m_-3868885004230812968_m_7343917842430264172__msoanchor_1>@Hayes, Kristin <[email protected]> - this is more for future knowledge but Sara has helped us bring on jotform (instead of using Google form or microsoft) and it has a bunch of great features, including branding forms. Something just to know for future form creation. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "geoengineering" group.
