About

Following the success of ISCRAES 2020 (Virtual), ISCRAES 2022 (In-Person), and ISCRAES 2024, we are delighted to invite researchers, policymakers, industry leaders, and sustainability practitioners to participate in the Fourth International Symposium on Climate-Resilient Agri-Environmental Systems (ISCRAES 2026).

ISCRAES 2026 continues its mission as a premier biennial, not-for-profit scientific symposium bringing together the global agri-environmental community.

📍 Location: Dublin, Ireland
📅 Dates: 12–14 August 2026

ISCRAES 2026 will be held under the central theme, “Land Health Nexus: Cultivating Climate Resilience and Sustainable Agri-Environments.”The symposium aims to address the urgent need to strengthen the resilience of agricultural systems while safeguarding land health, biodiversity, and ecosystem services. By fostering interdisciplinary collaboration and scientific exchange, ISCRAES 2026 seeks to contribute meaningfully to agro-environmental sustainability in the face of growing environmental, climate, and societal challenges.

As climate change accelerates globally, agricultural systems face unprecedented environmental, societal, and economic challenges. At the same time, agriculture significantly contributes to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, soil degradation, biodiversity loss, and water and air pollution.

This symposium addresses the urgent need to:

  • Enhance sustainable food production
  • Reduce agricultural greenhouse gas emissions
  • Improve soil health and land restoration
  • Protect biodiversity and ecosystem services
  • Promote low-carbon technologies across supply chains
  • Support EU Climate Action goals and the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

Agriculture is both highly vulnerable to climate change and a significant source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, making it central to global climate mitigation and carbon offset strategies. Sustainable land use approaches — including agroforestry, regenerative agriculture, and climate-smart land management — offer powerful solutions to reduce emissions and enhance carbon sequestration, while safeguarding agricultural productivity and food security.

As a key driver of economic development, agriculture also contributes to national GHG emissions, land degradation, biodiversity loss, and declining ecosystem services. Addressing these interconnected challenges requires integrated, science-based solutions that balance environmental sustainability with economic resilience. ISCRAES 2026 provides an international platform to explore climate policy, sustainable farming innovation, regulatory frameworks, and socio-economic factors shaping the future of climate-resilient agri-environmental systems.

Join Us in Dublin, Ireland

We are proud to welcome delegates to Ireland — the “Green Island” of the North Atlantic — renowned for its rich natural landscapes and strong agricultural heritage. The symposium will take place in Dublin, one of Europe’s most vibrant and welcoming capital cities, offering an inspiring setting for global dialogue on climate-resilient agriculture and sustainable agri-environmental systems.
