• Publication 22 December 2021 Investigating mechanisms of collective action initiatives' development in the energy sector. Report on the comparative case studies, COMETS H2020 project One of the emergent trends in the sustainable energy transition is the development of distributed power generation. In Europe, it is estimated that up half of citizens of the European Union (EU) could be energy self-sufficient, potentially supplying 45% of Europe’s final energy demand by 2050 (Kampman, et al., 2016). While there are many challenges with a move towards more distributed, citizen-led energy projects, they are nevertheless supported and promoted by the EU in the RED II (EU…

• News 10 December 2021 Climate smart agriculture puts food on the table in  Laos In Laos, the agricultural sector accounts for 29.9% of the country’s GDP, and approximately 70-80% of the population is dependent on the sector for its livelihoods. The importance of agriculture to both the people and the economy makes the sector a decisively vulnerable one. Flooding disasters in particular are responsible for yearly losses in agricultural production of hundreds of millions of USD.
