ICCG - Initiative on Climate Change policy and Governance Details
ICCG was founded in 2009 as a joint initiative of Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei (FEEM) and Fondazione Giorgio Cini, named "International Center for Climate Governance". In 2017, ICCG became a FEEM international dissemination project with a new name, Initiative on Climate Change policy and Governance, and continues to focus its activities on the design of climate policy and related governance issues.Located on the Island of San Giorgio Maggiore in Venice, the ICCG favors the interaction between political scientists, economists, policymakers and business leaders to analyse the interdependencies between the economic, social, cultural, ethical, and political dimensions of climate governance.The ICCG's mission is to disseminate scientifically-based, socio-economic research in the fields of climate change mitigation and adaptation to policymakers, business leaders, academics and the general public. It seeks to achieve this at the local, national and international levels through interdisciplinary activities as well as through the production of climate and energy policy analyses and definitions of optimal governance models for climate change management.ICCG organizes scientific events of international relevance, lectures, seminars, workshops, develops interdisciplinary observatories on specific aspects of climate governance, and promotes training activities targeted to researchers, policymakers and the general public.Several other activities, such as art exhibitions, contests, cultural debates, and film festivals, are created specifically to involve various actors and to inform the public at large. These events are characterized by an interdisciplinary and intercultural participation.Furthermore, ICCG edits a wide collection of e-publications to support e-learning and research.
