Climate protection requires centralised political measures. But to what extent are environmental policy reforms guided by scientific findings? Many researchers in the field of environmental, climate and sustainability issues consider their own work to be policy-relevant. But when are research findings actually taken into account in the political process? What measures can young researchers in particular take to increase the visibility of their own work in the political arena? Together with invited decision-makers from the federal level and European institutions, members of the Junge Akademie will discuss which factors are conducive to ensuring that science reaches the political process as effectively as possible.

Speakers and panelists of the 10th Climate Lecture:

  • Dr. Johanna Wehkamp, Policy Officer at the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action
  • Dr. Artur Runge-Metzger, former Director in the Directorate-General for Climate Action of the European Commission
  • Dr. Moritz Schwarz, Senior Climate Economist at the Austrian Ministry of Finance
  • Dr. Jan Siegmeier, Scientific Advisory Council on Global Change of the German Federal Government

Note: Dr. Moritz Schwarz stepped in at short notice for Dr. Friderike Kuik, Senior Economist at the European Central Bank.
