Our projects

We provide technical support to vulnerable developing countries to develop 2035 Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and Long Term Low Emissions Development Strategies (LT-LEDS). The project aims to empower these countries to develop more ambitious emissions reduction and adaptation targets that contribute to global efforts in achieving the Paris Agreement.

Fossil gas has long been marketed as a “bridge fuel” on the way to a cleaner energy system – a less-polluting alternative to coal. But this is a dangerous fallacy promoted by vested interests. Our research shows gas needs to be phased out globally by 2045 for the world to meet its climate commitments.

The Global Mitigation Potential Atlas quantifies countries’ mitigation potential, with a view to inspire greater ambition to reduce emissions and implementation efforts, and identify optimal pathways towards 1.5°C

This project aims to equip representatives from African countries with the knowledge, skills and networks needed to develop and implement long-term low emission development strategies. Here, we feature our work in Togo, Cote d’Ivoire and Benin.

The project will develop national pathways for phasing out coal, oil, and gas production in line with 1.5°C, providing clear, science-backed production phase-out benchmarks to guide political debate and advocacy efforts.

The project strengthens inclusive and accountable international climate governance by supporting the effective engagement of Least Developed Countries, Small Island Developing States and other vulnerable countries in the lead-up to COP31. It will also assess selected Global Climate Action Agenda initiatives and develop recommendations to improve their transparency, accountability and integration within the UNFCCC process.
