Climate Strategies’ Pathway to Impact 2026-2029
Summary
Climate Strategies' 2026-2029 strategy focuses on accelerating the science-policy nexus to deliver inclusive and effective climate action. The organisation operates as a neutral knowledge broker, connecting a network of over 120 members with policymakers to address systemic gaps in climate finance, adaptation, and fossil fuel phase-out. Its strategic framework is built around five impact areas: Prosperity Post Fossil Fuels, Nature and Resilient Food Systems, Global Majority-Powered Change, Equitable Carbon & Climate Innovation, and Building Evidence-Based Climate Narratives. The strategy emphasises the need for Just Transitions, the inclusion of Global Majority perspectives in policy recommendations, and the use of evidence-based narratives to counter climate obstruction and misinformation.
Key insights
- Climate Strategies aims to increase the number of evidence-based policy recommendations and cross-sector dialogues that directly inform fossil fuel phaseout strategies in at least five key producing or consuming countries by 2029.
- The organisation intends to ensure that leadership and inputs from Global South actors constitute at least 50% of policy recommendations in its led initiatives and international dialogues.
- Climate Strategies is focusing on the governance of emerging carbon and climate management technologies, such as carbon dioxide removal (CDR), carbon capture and storage (CCS), and solar radiation modification (SRM), to ensure they are socially legitimate and equitable.
- The strategy identifies a need for authoritative research into international climate obstruction, specifically regarding who is blocking UNFCCC and IPCC processes and how they exert influence.
- The organisation is working to translate research on nature and food systems into user-friendly formats for frontline practitioners, including rural communities and subnational decision-makers, as current findings are often inaccessible.
- Climate Strategies operates a network of over 120 members to drive its strategy of knowledge brokerage and mediation, aiming to amplify the collective voice of researchers to shape global debates.
