How we work

Helmholtz KLIMA mediates as a dialog platform between politics and science

We focus on the current social and political debates on climate change. To this end, we identify the relevant research expertise from the 18 centers of the Helmholtz Association and use our dialog formats to bring experts and politicians together in order to jointly develop solutions for our future.

Dialog formats 

In order to adequately reach the various target groups and stakeholders and to integrate them into the dialog between science and politics, we organize dialog-oriented projects and formats such as parliamentary events, background discussions, podcasts, workshops and much more.
