Princeton Climate Institute

Profile

The organization's activities consist of developing systems and datasets to help governments and their agencies, nongovernmental organizations, the research community and the general public to reduce the risk of climate and hydrological hazards (e.g. Droughts and flods), to develop adaptation strategies to cope with climate variability and change, and to sustainably use water resources. These activities are aimed foremost at least developed countries who are generally exposed to a range of climate and hydrological hazards, yet have the lowest capacity to respond or even adapt and mitigate the impacts of climate change. They are also aimed at the scientific community in the least developed countires and globally to help develop collaborative research to improve the science behind these systems and datasets.
