Our climate is changing. We need to change with it.
The Climate Change Exchange exists to bring together research, policy and practice to build our collective capacity to create inclusive, just and transformative adaptation futures.
A community sharing ideas to inspire courageous action that creates lasting positive change for people and planet.
The risks we face
Our excessive pressures on the Earth’s natural systems are creating an imbalance that is worsening climate change and its effects on human and natural systems. These effects are experienced unevenly across communities and our ability to anticipate and reduce the negative impacts of climate change is becoming increasingly urgent.
What’s needed
We must find effective, integrated, socially equitable ways to adapt and address the drivers of climate risk and vulnerability to enable climate just responses.
Our response
We build cross-sectoral capacity, informed by theory, practice and lived experience, to strategically address the drivers of risk and vulnerability to climate change.
We bridge research, policy and practice on climate change adaptation and amplify issues of climate justice.
The Climate Change Exchange fosters collaboration and innovation by connecting research with practice for organisations dealing with climate change.
We create spaces for people to connect, grow their understanding and act to transform systems through building relationships and practicing adaptation together.
We focus on:
- Strengthening the capability of organisations and communities to plan for, manage and recover from the impacts of climate change.
- Increasing the use of relevant research to inform just adaptation planning.
- Building a collaborative network of researchers and practitioners to share and promote innovative thinking and good practice in climate change adaptation.
