Frankfurt School - UNEP Collaborating Centre for Climate & Sustainable Energy Finance (the Centre) is a strategic cooperation between the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the Frankfurt School of Finance & Management (Frankfurt School). It was launchend in July 2011.
Both partners recognize that – for decades to come – climate change will pose a fundamental challenge to the world economy and the financial industry in particular.
The Centre is committed to facilitating the necessary structural change of energy supply and use around the globe by helping to catalyse private sector capital flow towards investments in sustainable energy and climate change mitigation and adaptation.
Located at Frankfurt School, the Centre combines research of the highest calibre with an orientation towards practical application all the way to the final implementation. By implementing findings and instruments in the field where they will be most effective, the Centre will maximize its knowledge base and grow into a leading think tank on this topic |
