Climate Policy Fellow
Jennifer Perron has worked on global climate change for over a decade, in academia, think tanks, and non-profits, often focused on broadening stakeholder engagement and awareness on the issue. She has a strong background in both the science and politics of global climate change, with areas of interest in international climate policy and diplomacy and its nexus with U.S. domestic climate policies, in adaptation and building community resilience, and in the role of the networks in broadening civil society engagement and advancing multilateral environmental governance processes. She has conducted social science research on urban climate adaptation and adaptive capacity, explored the uptake of scientific information on climate impacts by agricultural decision-makers, researched sectoral decarbonization strategies, examined the effects of Latin American climate mitigation strategies on livelihoods, and tracked the UN climate negotiations, and written on the nexus of climate policy, finance, food security and sustainable land use.
