CCE provides policy analysis for partners in Cambridge, the UK, and internationally. We collaborate with the Centre for Science and Policy (CSaP) to produce reports for the Cambridge Zero Policy Forum, a multidisciplinary network of senior academics contributing evidence and expertise to policies supporting a sustainable, inclusive and resilient net zero society.
Our reports for Chapter Zero help UK-based non-executive directors stay informed on key climate policy updates relevant to their businesses. We also create content for the Climate Governance Initiative, a global network of board directors with Chapters in over 70 countries, including COP event briefings and summaries, and transition planning navigator tools.
