The Institute of Development Studies (IDS), together with the London School of Economics (LSE), Tearfund, Christian Aid, University of Leeds, Overseas Development Institute (ODI), and the Chronic Poverty Research Centre, have established a network on poverty and adaptation.
The Network, funded by the UK’s Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), intends to apply different disciplinary perspectives on the theory and policy challenges of how to make policy challenges work for the world’s poor.
It also seeks to reposition the theory and discourse of climate change adaptation and in doing so recognise the importance of science and knowledge in promoting pro-poor adaptation.
