🌍 Introducing the SDSN Global Climate Hub
Hello, LinkedIn community! We are thrilled to introduce the SDSN Global Climate Hub!
🌐 About Us:
The Global Climate Hub functions as a thematic network within the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network. Our hosting institutions are the Athens University of Economics and Business and the "Athena" Research and Innovation Center, both of which are part of the Alliance of Excellence for Research and Innovation on Αephoria #AE4RIA, an initiative for collaboration between research institutions, innovation accelerators, and science-technology-policy interface networks focused on sustainable development. The Academy of Athens and DTU - Technical University of Denmark, are two of the most important co-founding institutions of the GCH. The chair of the SDSN-GCH is Professor Dr. Phoebe Koundouri.
🌱 Our Focus:
The SDSN-GCH consists of nine thematic units that cover in an interlinked fashion a broad spectrum of climate sustainability concerns & needs: Climate Data Platforms and Digital Applications, Climate & Energy Systems Modeling, Climate & Health, Just Transition: Policies, Finance, Labor Market, Education, Training, Upskilling and Reskilling, Atmospheric Physics and Climatology, Climate, Land Use, Water-Food-Energy-Biodiversity Nexus Modeling, Innovation Acceleration for Climate Neutrality and Resilience, Transformative and Participatory Approaches. The works of the units of the GCH is supported by 200 researchers.
💡 Our Mission:
The SDSN-GCH collates expertise, knowledge, data, and tools to provide science-based and human-centric pathways toward net zero transformation towards 2050. For successfully treading this way, sophisticated support from advanced digital technologies, complex science modeling, and a holistic multi-module approach are needed, to provide suitable science-based recommendations. The SDSN GCH makes extensive use of data, knowledge, and technologies provided by experts, and couples this with country-specific action plans aiming at their adoption and reinforcement by society. It adopts a holistic multi-module approach, allowing for the evaluation of variable complexities and scales, and providing relevant technical, financial, and policy solutions.
