We support policies that address climate change, resource management, and environmental protection.
This area examines how societies can mitigate environmental risks while adapting to unavoidable impacts. It focuses on policies that reduce emissions, protect ecosystems, and strengthen resource management. The aim is to balance economic development with sustainability, ensuring communities remain resilient, prosperous, and fair in the face of global change.
Climate policy and emissions reduction
Strong climate policies establish clear targets for cutting emissions while supporting clean energy and sustainable technologies. Tools such as carbon pricing, regulatory standards, and innovation incentives help align economic growth with environmental responsibility. These measures ensure that climate commitments translate into practical action and long-term decarbonisation.
Adaptation, resilience and capacity building
Adaptation strategies reduce vulnerability to climate impacts through investments in resilient infrastructure, ecosystem protection, and public awareness. Building local capacity strengthens communities’ ability to withstand shocks such as floods, heatwaves, or food insecurity. Effective adaptation fosters governance systems that safeguard livelihoods while promoting sustainable and inclusive development.
Economic impacts and climate mobility
Climate change reshapes labour markets, disrupts regions, and forces migration in vulnerable areas. Policies are needed to manage transitions in employment, protect affected workers, and support communities facing displacement. By addressing these challenges, governments can reduce inequality and ensure that climate responses are fair, inclusive, and economically viable.
