Transitions Pathways and Risk Analysis for Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation Strategies (TRANSRISK)
Description:
TRANSrisk is an EU-funded research project studying the risks and uncertainties within low carbon transition pathways, and how transitions can be implemented in ways that are technically, economically and sociably feasible. The project’s objective is to produce a new assessment framework, and an accompanying toolbox, for policy makers. TRANSrisk aims to assess low emission transition pathways that are technically and economically feasible and acceptable from a social and environmental viewpoint. TRANSrisk brings together quantitative models and qualitative approaches, focusing on participatory consultations with stakeholders as a link between the approaches.
TRANSrisk’s work programme focuses on 4 key areas: Stakeholders Engagement & Participatory Scenario Development; Synergies & Conflicts; Innovation Policies & Transition Pathways; and Assessing Uncertainties & Risks.
