Translating energy and climate research into policy
Part of the IIASA mission is to provide scientific guidance to policymakers. In 2018, IIASA scientists continued to engage in international and national policy processes by translating cutting-edge science into policy relevant insights for energy and climate policymakers and negotiators.
National energy modeling and capacity development
In 2018, IIASA researchers organized several capacity development activities. These comprised workshops on best practices in energy and integrated assessment modeling as well as hosting researchers from IIASA member countries to jointly develop and apply methods to address energy-related challenges.
Engaging with science and policy communities
The Transitions to New Technologies (TNT) Program’s strategy for engagement with the IIASA science and policy communities include a focus on high-level international science and policy initiatives and the dissemination of results from its research through dedicated open source web-based platforms.
