SUMMARY:Energy Review 2019: global megatrends and opportunities for UK plc
DESCRIPTION:The School of Engineering and the Built Environment staff are invited to the annual Energy Review event with the President of the Energy Institute\, Malcolm Brinded\, CBE FREng FEI.  \nThe world’s population is expected to hit ten billion in the second half of this century\, up from 7.5 billion today. More than two thirds of the global population will live in urban centres by 2050\, up from just over half today. And global average temperature could increase by 4+ degrees Celsius without major action to reduce emissions – with the Paris commitment of 2oC and the IPCC recommended limit of 1.5oC looking very tough to achieve. \nPopulation growth\, mass urbanisation and climate change – global megatrends are shaping the world in which we live\, with unprecedented implications for governments\, industries and wider society. \nHow do we turn these global challenges into opportunities – and build a world in which everyone\, irrespective of where they live\, has access to affordable\, reliable and sustainable energy?  \nIt calls for tremendous ingenuity across the global energy system\, not least in the UK – an early mover in decarbonising our own energy system\, and home to significant technological capabilities and some promising solutions for the future\, which could flourish in serving these emerging global markets.  \nMalcolm will draw on more than four decades of personal and professional experiences as Board Director of Royal Dutch Shell plc\, together with his perspective at the helm of Energy Institute\, to explore how these megatrends are driving the global energy transition and the opportunities for UK plc. \nBook your Place: \nFor further details\, or to book a place\, please contact:\nGary Howorth (Hon. Secretary) gary.howorth@energy-redefined.com \nIt is anticipated that this event shall be popular\, so please confirm your place early.

SUMMARY:Global Challenge Research Funding Workshop - 6th March 2019
DESCRIPTION:If you are thinking of applying for any GCRF in the near future\, please sign up here for this internal workshop 6th March 2019.  This will be a valuable opportunity to get advice on how to write a fundable GCRF proposal from a GCRF panelist. \nSome details of the workshop below\n………………………………………………………….\nWhether you are experienced or new to working in these contexts\, this workshop will give you the opportunity to think about how you can do research that delivers Official Development Assistance (ODA) and lasting impacts.\n• Get advice on how to write a fundable GCRF proposal from a GCRF panelist\n• Explore evidence-based principles to underpin the development of GCRF impact summaries\, pathways to impact\, ODA statements and Theories of Change\n• Learn how to use tools for identifying international partners\, stakeholders and publics\, and identifying potential impacts\, showing how a Theory of Change can be constructed from the bottom-up\, based on impact goals identified in-country\n• Discover tools that can enable GCRF teams to track planned impacts as well as opportunistic impacts as they arise. You have the opportunity to review eight different approaches to designing an evaluation and then in small groups design your own impact evaluation\n• Finally\, you consider how to manage meetings with international (including non-academic) partners and workshops with stakeholders and publics that are efficient and enjoyable. You learn easy-to-use tools to manage power dynamics and deal with difficult individuals and situations\, so you can lead with confidence with no training or experience. \nThe workshop is delivered in 4 session.

SUMMARY:Shaping New Places through the Human-Centred Smart City
DESCRIPTION:Dr Luca Mora of the Centre for Smart Cities will be presenting his research at a networking event organised by the Royal Society of Arts on Tuesday 5th February.  \n In exploring the smart city concept\, Dr Mora will consider: How can the ‘Smart City’ be imagined as a place for people\, where technology is servant\, not master? How is the ‘Smart City’ understood by different cities internationally?
