Environment and Climate

Climate change is reshaping our world. Extreme weather, sea level rise, and shifting rainfall patterns already affect millions of people. Addressing climate change requires both understanding its local impacts and developing context-specific solutions.

We research emissions reduction, climate adaptation, and mitigation strategies tailored to African contexts. Our work helps communities prepare for climate impacts and governments set evidence-based climate policy.
