The German Institute of Development and Sustainability (IDOS) publishes four independent publication series. IDOS researchers publish their current research results in Discussion Papers, Policy Briefs and Studies. Visiting scholars and cooperation partners also have the opportunity to publish their research results in one of the IDOS series. Publications from the series Analysen und Stellungnahmen, Briefing Paper and Two-Pager / Zweiseiter, which will be discontinued in 2022, will continue to be available online. The fourth publication series is for opinion pieces: The Current Column regularly comments on the latest developments and issues in international development policy.
IDOS researchers also regularly publish their research results in peer-reviewed and non-peer-reviewed German and international journals and publication series of other research institutes and institutions as well as with renowned book publishers. In addition, they use blogs and online platforms of partner institutions to communicate the Institute's research and advisory activities to an interested public.

Do INDCs lead to self-differentiation of countries' responsibilities to address climate change? This paper shows that 1) INDCs advance CBDR-RC beyond mitigation to include, at least, adaptation and finance; 2) INDCs advance differentiation beyond the bifurcation of Annex I and non-Annex I countries.
The concept of non-economic loss and damage (NELD) groups the impacts of climate change that are hard to measure or quantify. This paper outlines the main characteristics of NELD and the specific challenges they pose to research and policy-making at the national and international level.

Behavioural insights should enhance energy efficiency interventions in informal settlements, where over two billion people will live by 2022. The stresses of poverty reduce cognitive capacity, necessitating behavioural informed approaches to increase energy efficiency uptake and related co-benefits.
