April Roundtable Leaders Dialogue on Environmental Security, Military Leadership and Climate Risks.

On 30 April 2025, KAS Canada hosted its April Roundtable Leaders Dialogue on Environmental Security, Military Leadership and Climate Risks , at Chateau Laurier, Ottawa. We had the pleasure of hosting Ms. Eva Cohen from Civil Protection Youth Canada, Mr. Dale Beugin from Canadian Climate Institute / Institut climatique du Canada I and Col. Derek J. Lay from Canadian Armed Forces | Forces armées canadiennes. Interesting facts, risks and solutions were discussion in terms of climate risks, operational capacity and reaction of civil society for physical protection and service. Among the topics discussed, the recent power outage/blackout in Spain and Portugal, future voluntary cooperation for environmental risks between Canada and Germany, and infrastructure captured the audience.
