Overview
The Climate Policy Lab (CPL) will examine mitigation policies (mostly in the developing world) through the lenses of what works, what doesn’t and why. The goal is to support the design and implementation of low cost, scalable mitigation solutions that facilitate countries achieving their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement. This will be particularly critical as the U.S. reduces support for such efforts; without U.S. aid, many nations will not have the resources or expertise to meet their commitments. The lab will serve as a resource center for developing nations on policy design and evaluation that is tailored to the local context.

for the Climate Policy Lab
The Climate Policy Lab will examine mitigation policies (with a focus on the Global South) through the lenses of what works, what doesn’t, and how to engage effectively for these rapidly developing economies to embrace a low-carbon pathway. The goal is to support the design and implementation of low-cost, scalable mitigation policies and solutions that facilitate countries achieving their net-zero targets. The lab’s goal is to increase both climate ambition and the effectiveness of their implementation of existing climate goals. (Substrategy: China National Policy)
