Mitigation and Policy

To drive meaningful action for a sustainable future, effective policies need to be developed. Our experts investigate the possibilities of transformative solutions given the intricate interplay of political, economic, and societal factors.

Our experts engage in climate policy and mitigation research, from implementing international climate finance commitments to extensive analysis of issues at the intersection of global energy and climate politics. These include promoting climate justice via legal action and intergovernmental and national legislative frameworks for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, among others. By informing policy design and implementation, our experts contribute to the development of comprehensive mitigation strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and transition to a carbon-neutral society.
