Abstrakt: This article explores the challenges posed by extreme weather and climate-related events and the inadequacy of current resilience and adaptation frameworks. It discusses the "Exploring Unprecedented Extremes" workshop held in Montreal, Canada, which aimed to address the research gap in understanding and preparing for these events. The workshop emphasized the need for transformational changes in governance and the integration of diverse perspectives to effectively respond to climate extremes. It also highlighted the importance of effective communication and coproduction of knowledge in bridging the gap between scientific research and decision-making. The article provides examples of recent extreme events and emphasizes the urgency of addressing these challenges. It discusses the importance of understanding different ways of knowing and establishing trust in research collaborations, as well as exploring various modeling approaches used to study climate change and extreme weather events. The text concludes by emphasizing the need for a shift in perspective and the adoption of transdisciplinary approaches to effectively address climate extremes. The workshop served as a foundation for examining the impacts of climate change and identifying strategies for adaptation and transformation, and the text emphasizes the urgency of taking action and promoting understanding among individuals, communities, and organizations.
