Events

We all have a need for mobility. Our researcher Maike Puhe would like to discuss with you how local public transport in Karlsruhe and the surrounding region can best meet your needs in the future and what ideas research has to offer.
 
WHEN? July 30 from 1 to 3 p.m. WHERE? Karl9, Karlstraße 9, Karlsruhe Entry free. You can come and go at any time.
"Tell me, ITAS" is a series of events organized by ITAS at Karl9 - Science hub for technology and society. Researchers move their workplace to Karl9 for an afternoon and answer your questions about their research topics.

Start your own #climatechallenge!
The #climatechallenge is aimed at people who would like to get more involved in climate protection and would like to hold their own workshop in their private or professional environment. In the approximately three-hour online training you will get to know the workshop format in more detail. Anyone who works or does voluntary work in municipalities, neighborhoods, clubs or parishes can take part. We also offer all participants in the training courses supervision for exchange and networking.
 
Places are limited. The training language is German. Participation is free of charge.
 
The organizer is the Karlsruhe Transformation Center for Sustainability and Cultural Change at ITAS. The #climatechallenge project is funded by the National Climate Protection Initiative.

Umzug in die Zukunft - Auf dem Weg in die Zukunftsweltstadt. The short film (5 min) is intended to touch, inspire, raise questions and invite people to develop new visions of desirable living environments in and around Karlsruhe. Karlsruhe is on its way to becoming a city of the future! Carl Wilhelm reloaded - but not as a vision of an absolutist autocrat - but as a cooperation of individual and collective transformation processes - for a culture of sustainability and joie de vivre!

Karlsruhe is becoming warmer and drier as climate changes in southwest Germany. Large city trees often become the first target for removal during infrastructure projects. At the same time, the poor vitality of city trees due to climate change impacts, diseases, and early aging of trees also sometimes contributes to the premature removal of trees. In this presentation, I will show the importance of large trees in cooling and biodiversity conservation in urban areas (e.g., streets, cemeteries, and parks) and provide some outlook on improving arboriculture and tree care so that the large trees can be kept in the city for a longer time. I will provide examples from the concluded GrüneLunge, ongoing URBORETUM, and other research projects.
