PSP

Summary

Central to this PSP is keeping climate a political priority. The project has a social science focus, combining social and exact sciences. This PSP aims to produce actionable knowledge to support strategic and operational policymaking processes focusing on the nexus development-environment-climate change. This approach is rooted in the recognition that climate change, environmental distress and food security are not just scientific or technical problems, but social, political, and economic challenges.
