Informing deep transformational change for the environment, society, economics and governance.
Many of the impacts of climate change are felt at a local scale affecting communities, governance structures and key natural and physical assets. Increasingly, the need for fundamental change through planned transformation in key climate-vulnerable systems is recognised as central to adaptation responses.
ISF's expertise in this area can provide evidence and holistic knowledge to inform decision-making and long-term transformational planning.
