The 4th International Symposium on Climate-Resilient Agri-Environmental Systems (ISCRAES) will take place from 21–23 June 2027 at the UCD Health Sciences Centre in Dublin, Ireland. Under the central theme, “Land Health Nexus: Cultivating Climate Resilience and Sustainable Agri-Environments,” the conference focuses on securing global food supplies while safeguarding land health, biodiversity, and ecosystem services. The event will feature 18 multidisciplinary scientific sessions covering cutting-edge research, digital innovations like AI-driven farm modelling, and sustainable practices. It serves as a premier biennial, not-for-profit platform that brings together global experts, innovators, and policymakers to actively shape a climate-resilient future for agriculture.

World Café Workshop Explores Future Development of MODASYS. featured an engaging and collaborative World Café Workshop, bringing project partners and stakeholders together to explore future developments and innovations within the project framework. Dr. Ibrahim Khalil, Coordinator, introduced the MODASYS framework and its functionalities, followed by a live demonstration by Mr Badhan Sen, showcasing its input requirements and predictive capabilities (outputs).

The All-Island Climate and Biodiversity Research Network (AICBRN) brings together researchers from a wide range of disciplines across the island of Ireland who are undertaking research in climate and biodiversity topics. The ambition of the AICBRN is to develop a large-scale research and innovation initiative to support policy and management decisions, underpin business and enterprise strategies and strengthen societal capacity to address the climate and biodiversity emergencies..

This symposium (ISCRAES), a biennial scientific conference not-for-profit, has been organising to achieve the primary objective of agro-environmental sustainability by tackling the current major environmental, climate, and societal challenges facing by the world.

The workshop showcased the preliminary prototype of a Science Foundation Ireland-funded project HOLOS-ie. It aimed to gather feedback from collaborators and stakeholders to refine the project and ensure its alignment with scientific needs. The expected outcomes include project refinement, knowledge sharing, and stakeholder engagement.

The Climate Ireland Adaptation Network is a practitioner network aimed at sharing expertise and creating learning opportunities around adaptation in Ireland as well as improving the consistency of adaptation implementation. Its focus is to provide a forum for climate risk and adaptation planning practitioners in Ireland and to plan effectively for the future climate and environment of Ireland.

In 2023, I was the sole recipient of the Best Poster Presentation award at the SFI-IRC Joint Summit, a collaborative event hosted by Science Foundation Ireland and the Irish Research Council.

Chair

Stakeholders of various categories across public and private sectors within agri-food industries are being consulted and interviewed as part of HOLOS-IE project funded by SF-GOV.IE-ECRRF to get their views, thoughts and recommendations to develop a comprehensive model (HOLOS-IE) for Ireland.
