Climate Policy Institute<br />

Established in 2020, the Climate Policy Institute is based on the recognition<br />

that climate change and adaptation to its consequences is one of the<br />

major social and economic issues of our time. Accommodating climate<br />

change requires a new strategy and close cooperation of the most disparate disciplines. This is what<br />

this research institute aims to facilitate. The Institute also promotes nature-loving and nature-friendly<br />

behaviors to shape environmental policy. The activities of the Climate Policy Institute include the<br />

education of students at primary, high-school and university levels, provision of extra-curricular and<br />

public education activities and activities within the public education system, and the organization of<br />

various green professional and training courses. In addition, CPI promotes public awareness of science<br />

and raises general green literacy through various debates, media appearances, conference presentations,<br />

events, and projects related to environmental protection, social activism and civic participation.<br />

The director of the Institute is Dr. Calum TM Nicholson, social anthropologist, researcher, and expert<br />

on climate migration.<br />
