About this listen

Dorit Korine, the conference manager who has been steering the Drylands, Deserts and Desertification (DDD) Conference since its second run, shares the history and unique ethos of the event. She explains how the conference started as a one-time success and quickly became a tradition, emphasizing that its value lies in its deeply multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary structure—forcing water researchers to attend health sessions, for example. Dorit highlights that this intentional mixing of fields fosters breakthroughs and collaborations that extend far beyond the conference floor, making the DDD Conference a truly unique and vital platform for addressing the world's most urgent climate issues.
