Mission & Interests
Goals: ERCST is a Brussels-based think-tank which provides rigorous intellectual analysis of EU and international climate change developments and policies, by using the experience and research of its staff, as well input from stakeholders who participate in its activities. ERCST provides original ideas and research into European and international debates on climate change policy. It represents its own views and strives to ensure in a very strict way its independence and integrity.
ERCST aims to provide a neutral space where policymakers and regulators can meet stakeholders to discuss climate change policy and how to manage the transition to a low GHG- economy in a sustainable way.
ERCST focuses its work in work streams that operate with different formats such as moderated Roundtables, briefings, and meetings. Over the last years, ERCST has organised and facilitated over one hundred workshops and events with policymakers and other stakeholders, and produced dozens of papers and reports.
