EMRAF Conference
A Climate for Change and Action
This year's EMRAF conference focuses on the theme of climate change. The sub-groups operating as part of EMRAF will all have a chance to show-case their work so far as well as posing questions and finding out the opinions of delegates.
The conference will provide an opportunity to make some real progress in linking ideas about climate change with the ways in which members go about their lives and business in the region.
