- Podcast 29 June 2026 The ClimateTech Podcast Welcome to the ClimateTech Podcast.In this podcast series, experts and practitioners present their views and insights on specific technologies or sectors, that can help us address the climate crisis, and more importantly, how we can speed up its implementation in the developing world.
- News 26 June 2026 Urgent Call to Action: Protecting Health Through Energy Efficiency, Nature-Based Solutions and Heat–Health Action Plans Globally, communities are facing another year of extreme temperatures, and the urgency of addressing heat-related risks has never been clearer. In recent weeks, countries including France, Spain, Italy and Greece have experienced prolonged heatwaves, triggering health alerts, disrupting daily life and placing additional pressure on healthcare systems, energy infrastructure and vulnerable communities. Emerging economies face particularly acute exposure: rapid, often informal urbanization, large…
- News 24 June 2026 From transparency to implementation: How Brazil built a climate plan with science and people at its core As countries move from setting targets to delivering them, Brazil’s Plano Clima offers a practical example of how climate commitments can be translated into sectoral action, monitoring systems, and inclusive governance processes.The national climate plan, launched by the Government of Brazil in March 2026 and developed through a whole-of-government and whole-of-society process, serves as the country’s roadmap for implementing its NDC and achieving its goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions…
- News 9 June 2026 In Memory of John Christensen It is with a very heavy heart that we share the news that our former director, John Christensen, passed away peacefully yesterday.
