Overview
This project grant supports research and analysis on how certain conditions, including political and regulatory requirements, can be designed and implemented by governments looking to impose climate policy goals on firms and industries via economic stimulus. The research will focus on how policymakers have historically used conditionality clauses in government investments in various industries; review current proposals for climate conditionality in stimulus packages; and develop criteria to assess different types of conditionality, highlighting the potential and limitation of key proposals (including the political effects) of green conditionality.

Grants to this Grantee
for the Center for Long-Term Cybersecurity
A grant to the University of California at Berkeley will support the ongoing work of the Center for Long-Term Cybersecurity, the home of this research and engagement at the university. The center focuses on both the “cyber” and “security” components of cybersecurity, grounding efforts in a robust, flexible, and evolving understanding of the “possibility” space of cybersecurity. Research will focus on possible security scenarios and explore the technical, political, and economic intersection of these potential futures. The aim of this approach is to foster interdisciplinary collaboration within the center as well as to add diversity to the cybersecurity conversation. The center brings together academics from the School of Information, the School of Law, Computer Science, the Goldman School of Public Policy, and the College of Engineering, among others. It also engages external stakeholders in all facets of this work, including in outreach efforts. (Strategy: Talent Pipeline)
