Our teams

Our work is global in outlook. Political economy and governance underpin our efforts across seven interconnected areas. The scope of our work is unified in its ability to leverage the biggest impacts.

We are strategic thinkers

We combine deep strategic understanding with policy expertise. We analyse the political economy of climate and develop scenarios of how the future may evolve and what can be done to manage risks and exploit opportunities for action.

We are architects of climate action

We bring diverse stakeholders together to align action and foster dialogue. Through our collaborative approach we build connections and bridges, open windows of opportunity and create coalitions for change.

We are trusted brokers
