We are already a third of the way through the United Nations’ ‘decade of action,’ focused on accelerating sustainable solutions to the world’s biggest challenges.

I want to build on the progress we have already made by strengthening the foundations of the IPCC so we can continue to deliver in accordance with our growing scientific mandate.

I am therefore extremely proud to be able to work with the other members of the board to ensure that the Climate Centre continues to drive its mission forward in an energized and sustained way.

I have extensive experience across diverse fields including biodiversity, climate change adaptation, climate change mitigation, sustainability and resilience, and can use those skills to help maintain the scientific caliber of the IPCC.
