Helmholtz KLIMA
With Helmholtz KLIMA, the Helmholtz Association is renewing its commitment to climate research in 2024 and reorganizing the Helmholtz Climate Initiative.
The objective of Helmholtz KLIMA is to bring together climate-relevant research findings from all 18 Helmholtz Centers, promote new interdisciplinary research collaborations, and align the bundled knowledge in a more demand- and transfer-oriented manner.
In a collaborative forum with policymakers, media professionals, and business leaders, Helmholtz KLIMA serves as a platform for dialogue to discuss and communicate solutions to the challenges of climate change.
As a centralized platform, Helmholtz KLIMA facilitates dialogue and cooperation within the Helmholtz Association and among national and international stakeholders.
