Climate change impacts cities in manifold ways and often affects water resources: floods and other natural hazards damage urban infrastructure, drinking water quality can deteriorate, and pressure on surrounding water-based ecosystems can increase. The Bonn Water Network (BWN) invites you to its session at the Daring Cities Conference…

Serdeczny, Olivia (2017) Discussion Paper 12/2017
This discussion paper investigates how climate-related human mobility was included under the UNFCCC in two categories: adaptation and loss and damage. It reviews the role of research and analyses the loss and damage negotiations that led to the specific mandate of "addressing displacement".

Debates on the feasibility and necessity of continuous economic growth have increased, not least due to the urgent need for action to mitigate climate change and the current polycrises. Thinking about degrowth models to reduce material consumption and production in the richer countries must strongly involve lower-income countries to avoid a neo-colonial research agenda. It is also closely linked to the need for greater equity in global systems

Global Climate Action Beyond 2020 explores the role of non-state and subnational actors and initiatives between them in post-2020 climate governance. Efforts by such actors are crucial to demonstrating a multiplicity of solutions and to accelerate low-carbon and climate resilient transitions. This is especially urgent as current…

The NDC Explorer was jointly established by the German Development Institute /…
Serdeczny, Olivia / Eleanor Waters / Sander Chan (2016) Briefing Paper 3/2016
What is lost when climate impacts render places uninhabitable, change them beyond recognition? Such questions are addressed under the concept of non-economic loss and damage (NELD). It has emerged in the climate negotiations and requires systematic research integration for effective policy-making.

Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is considered by many research groups working on climate change mitigation as a necessary element of a (more) sustainable energy future. For instance, WBGU in its 2011 “Great Transformation” report concludes, “CCS is a necessary mitigation measure for countries that continue to use fossil energies, if…
Malerba, Daniele (2022) Discussion Paper 6/2022
Energy transitions and policies that incentivize it (such as carbon pricing and subsidy reforms) can increase poverty and inequality through higher prices and job disruptions. Using social protection mechanism can reverse these negative effects and make climate mitigation more politically feasible.
Durand, Alexis / Victoria Hoffmeister / Romain Weikmans / Jonathan Gewirtzman / Sujay Natson / Saleemul Huq / J. Timmons Roberts (2016) Discussion Paper 21/2016
Following the Paris Agreement, there is a growing need to support and to finance responses to climate-related loss and damage. This paper discusses what is meant by financing loss and damage response and what are possible means for raising predictable and adequate funding to this end.
