The title of the event is: “Climate Change and the Role of Early-Career Geomorphologists” organized by the Italian Young Geomorphologists (IYG) Group of the Italian Association of Physical Geography and Geomorphology (AIGeo). Its aim is to favour the scientific progress of the young researchers by stimulating the exchange among those operating in the different branches of Geomorphology. The program consists of the presentation and discussion of the scientific results obtained by young researchers while one session of the event will be the “IAG Southern Europe Webinar” during the International Geomorphology Week 2024. Besides the scientific sessions, the field trip “Living on the water towards 2100” will be organized.
