New strategy paper: What Future for International Climate Politics?

Climate change has been on the global agenda for over 20 years, but international co-operation has shown mixed results. The collapse of negotiations at Copenhagen contributed to disillusionment in civil society and signaled a gradual retreat from engagement in international climate policy processes. So, a much broader perspective and fresh strategy are needed to tackle inequity and to achieve a truly sustainable socio-ecological transformation of our economies and societies.

At the request of the Heinrich Boell Stiftung, the German Green political foundation, Farhana Yamin, Victor Menotti, Lili Fuhr and I wrote "What Futurefor International Climate Politics? A Call for a Strategic Reset." This policy paper articulates concrete proposals and puts forward ideas for devising smarter strategies that make engagement by civil society in international climate policy more effective.
