Abstract

In this video of our "ISTP4Public" series, Prof. David Kaufmann from ETH Zurich’s Spatial Development and Urban Policy Group highlights the need for policy advice that includes considerations of implementability and acceptance of the proposed policy. To help climate scientists provide such utilization-focused policy advice, Prof. Kaufmann worked together with various researchers and formulated a six-point checklist. One of their key findings is that effective policy advice requires transdisciplinary dialogue between natural, social, and policy scientists, as well as dialogue between research and government agencies.
