Framework-based Exploration of Typologies for Climate Governance
Emerging research on place-based climate governance was funded by the UK ESRC in 2023/2024 and was supported by SSN, the Place-based Climate Action Network (PCAN) and the Edinburgh Climate Change Institute (ECCI) at the University of Edinburgh.
This research:
- utilises the lessons learned from the Edinburgh Climate Commission
- develops a framework that explores 3 typologies for improved place-based climate governance
- selects a recommended typology for Edinburgh and outlines 2 practical applications of this
- presents a checklist of 17 key considerations that must be accounted for when designing, setting up, running, evaluating and decommissioning a place-based climate governance model, regardless of the place.
