When it comes to taking action related to climate change, United Nations SDG 13 reminds us that awareness raising, integrating climate measures in national policies and strengthening capacities with respect to meeting the challenges associated with it, such as natural disasters are crucial when it comes to meeting climate-change related challenges. In our workshop, we will lay scientific foundations regarding the causes of climate change such as environmental pollution and acidic rain and radiation hazards. We will also focus on the effects of climate change on natural and human life. Based on the scientific concepts presented here, we will take action by conceptualizing projects that may contribute to awareness raising, limiting climate-change drivers and reducing the climate change effects in Iraq and the entire region. We will present our ideas on the final conference day. The workshop is open for students of all disciplines and especially relevant for students of engineering, environmental science, natural sciences (physics, biology, chemistry).
