New pathways for equitable climate action in line with the Paris Agreement and sustainable development.
There is an urgent need to strengthen collective action and limit global warming to levels consistent with the objectives of the Paris Agreement.
The NEWPATHWAYS project aims to inform solutions to strengthen climate action by developing and analysing next-generation Paris-aligned global and national low-emission transformation pathways for the Global Stocktake in 2028. Stay up to date on project developments with our newsletter.
The project will deliver scientific insights to policymakers and key stakeholders at both international and national levels, supporting stronger collective action and more effective climate policies. This includes informing the development and enhancement of Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and Long-Term Strategies (LTS), thereby contributing to the achievement of the Paris Agreement goals.
NEWPATHWAYS brings together world-class experts in climate modelling, economics, social sciences, and policy. Our global consortium spans the Americas, Asia, Africa, and Europe—representing over two-thirds of global greenhouse gas emissions.
The project includes over twenty institutions with expertise in integrated assessment modelling, climate science, and policy engagement.
