The research activities of the team revolve around the policy dynamics of cross-cutting societal issues, particularly how governments across the world address climate change impacts, vulnerability and adaptation. The recent studies conducted by the team looks into the expanded role of communication outreach in increasing the ability of local communities to engage them in advocacy and policy issues related to climate resilience, access to essential energy and maintaining the local biodiversity.
