Arqus co-organises the BIP “Plant adaptations to climate changes”

Three Arqus universities (Granada, Minho and Wrocław), together with the Université Catholique de Louvain, are organising the Blended Intensive Programme (BIP) on “Plant adaptations to climate change”. The programme, developed by the Arqus Climate Change and Sustainable Development (CChSD) cluster, will have a virtual phase from 15^th to 19^th April and 13^th to 17^th May, and a series of in-person sessions from 6^th to 10^th May in Braga (Portugal).

Agriculture faces significant challenges exacerbated by climate change and pollution. The BIP Programme addresses this need through a multifaceted approach. Theoretical sessions, conducted both online and in-person, in synchronous and asynchronous formats, explore the diverse facets such as plant physiology, development and productivity in response to abiotic and biotic stresses induced by climate change and pollution. Hands-on experimental activities will enable participants to apply theoretical concepts. Furthermore, seminars by national and international specialists will enrich participants’ understanding of cutting-edge research and emerging trends.
