EU Climate Change Research Cluster and Thematic Working Groups
Connecting European climate researchers to debate, share and maximise impact.
Thematic Working Groups
The Thematic Working Groups in our Cluster provide an open, friendly space to debate and share challenges, learnings, and good practices related to climate research.
The aim is to experiment with new ways to exploit synergies between R&I projects, spot ‘low-hanging fruit’ for more meaningful exchange and collaboration. Also, to collect learnings and questions to share with EU policymakers and climate stakeholders.
Thematic Working Groups focus on:
Behavioural and Structural Change
Exploring behavioural and structural change as a means to deal with the challenges of the current multi-crisis era.
Communication and Dissemination
Empowering impactful climate communication for research projects through collaboration, co-creation and best practices.
Integrating Adaptation and Mitigation
Exploring integrative research, policy and governance approaches to adaptation, mitigation and urban development.
Regions and Communities
Supporting cities and regional and local authorities with transformation, adaptation and mitigation.
Financing Climate Action
Creating opportunities for learning and exchange on the need for public and private funding for climate adaptation, mitigation and resilience.
Carbon Budget and Carbon Farming
Exploring the challenges and opportunities of carbon budgets and farming as a means of working towards achieving carbon neutrality.
Sustainable Food Systems
Sharing insights, policy and best practices to shape sustainable pathways for the agriculture, forestry and other land use (AFOLU) sector.
Knowledge Platforms
Breaking down information and collaboration silos to achieve more joined-up, usable climate change knowledge and data.
Knowledge Services
Exploring the challenges and opportunities for more efficient knowledge sharing through trusted services and applications.
Energy Transition
Promoting sustainable energy transitions through a collaborative approach to adoption and the integration of policy, technology and stakeholder involvement.
International Collaboration
Exploring opportunities for international collaboration with representatives from research projects and European or global initiatives.
Distributional Consequences of Climate Policy
Creating a space for debate and exchange on how climate research and policy may be handled differently in different locations.
