The effects of climate change on water and biodiversity: a conference at the heart of contemporary environmental issues

As part of its commitment to disseminating knowledge and opening up to major contemporary challenges, Euromed University of Fes, in partnership with the Cervantes Institute, organized a conference dedicated to one of the major environmental challenges of our time: the impact of climate change on water resources and biodiversity.

Led by Carmen González Castro, Professor at the Universidad de Vigo, this meeting, entitled "The effects of climate change on water and biodiversity: tools to mitigate it", provided a scientific perspective on the environmental transformations affecting ecosystems worldwide today.

During her presentation, the speaker highlighted the growing consequences of climate change on water resources and natural balances, while underscoring the challenges related to biodiversity preservation. She also stressed the need to better understand the interactions between these phenomena in order to anticipate their effects and strengthen adaptation capacities in the face of current environmental changes.

The conference also allowed exploration of various tools and mitigation avenues likely to contribute to better management of environmental issues. Scientific approaches, sustainable strategies and innovative solutions were presented as essential levers to preserve natural resources and support ecological transitions.

Beyond academic exchanges, this meeting provided a space for reflection and dialogue around questions concerning our collective future. It illustrates the shared commitment of Euromed University of Fes and the Instituto Cervantes to promote cultural and scientific cooperation on major global issues, while raising awareness and transmitting knowledge to younger generations.
