SEI Oxford conducts innovative research and develops new tools, networks, and platforms to generate broader insights, and to steer policies and practices toward sustainability. The Centre’s expertise spans a wide variety of disciplines, among them:
SEI Oxford's work is examining the global implications of transboundary climate risks. Researchers are conducting work to strengthen cooperation among a range of partners to meet the global challenge of adaptation to climate change.
Other publication / Ten case studies in transboundary climate risk illuminate the blind spots for climate policymaking in this year's report.
SEI Oxford is the architect and host of weADAPT, an online collaborative knowledge-exchange platform and network for climate change adaptation research and practice.
Tool / weADAPT is SEI's pioneering, user-led platform and network for climate change adaptation.
Feature / weADAPT upgrades its climate adaptation training with new materials, courses, and toolkits. Improved organization make the most suitable options easier to find.
SEI Oxford plays a key role in the burgeoning field of climate services: the co-production, tailoring, communication and interpretation of science-based climate information to support policy planning and decision-making. The work is aimed at increasing understanding about how co-design and co-production processes can improve decisions and policies to address climate change adaptation.
Feature / The SEI Initiative on Climate Services generated new insights about co-design and co-production proocesses to integrate climate science into adaptation policy.
Tool / Tandem guidance is an interactive, online tool to help scientists and decision-makers collaborate to improve climate change adaptation planning and policies.
Journal article / This journal article introduces the Tandem framework to co-design transdisciplinary knowledge integration processes to build resilience to climate change.
Project / Future Resilience for African CiTies And Lands (FRACTAL) looks at climate processes driving southern Africa's climate variability and response to global change.
SEI Oxford work has established a comprehensive coordination and knowledge exchange platform for multi-stakeholder dialogue and consultation between CCA and DRR communities. We helped to create "Participate!", an online course to facilitate better events (online and in person) between these two groups.
Feature / An online course offers tailored training in how to facilitate interactive events for climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction communities.
SEI Oxford is working collaborative on a number of projects examining other aspects of climate change adaptation.
Project / AGORA will support the adaptation to climate change by leveraging and step-forwarding best practices, innovative approaches and policy instruments.
