Our Events

Science communications & Outreach is a key pillar at the Centre. We believe that research should not happen in a vacuum.

This is where communicating and reaching out to the wider society and various stakeholders about it come in. We aim to interest, inform, involve and inspire.

Apart from initiating programmes, we actively support activities by the community in the Singapore environmental milieu and the larger ecosystem of the region.

  • Climate and Ecosystem Science to inform Nature-based Solutions

    Steve is a climate and ecosystem scientist whose research powers smarter, science-based nature solutions for a changing world. By combining satellite data, ecosystem models, and machine learning, he connects the science of nature with real-world relevance—helping shape land-use policy, guide climate finance toward credible carbon solutions, and design cities that work with nature, not against it. In this webinar, he speaks about how forests can help combat climate change, and how smarter policies and economic tools can amplify their impact. Drawing on economics, climate science, and environmental data, his work evaluates the benefits and trade-offs of nature-based solutions. While these solutions are often highly effective, scaling them requires better data, thoughtful risk management, and stronger policy support. This webinar is the first in our new programme, Nature for Climate for You, which will be a series of online and offline activities featuring scientists, practitioners and advocates. It is a friendly space to learn and participate together!

  • Young Scientist Symposium

    The Young Scientist Symposium saw six students who received grants from the Dalio-funded Young Scientist Award presenting their research to the community in a formal setting on stage, and in a more casual setting during the Science Happy Hour held immediately after the symposium. A science communication element was also imbued into the symposium, with three experienced scientists who are also expert communicators, sharing some tips and tricks on presenting science to a general audience. One of these experts was TMSI marine biologist Dr Neo Mei Lin, who shared advice on public speaking, and delivering scientific messages to a crowd. About 180 people signed up for the symposium.
