The Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change and the Environment
The Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change and the Environment is the new home to all climate-change and environment research at LSE.
The Institute is chaired by Lord Stern of Brentford, author of the 2006 Stern Review, and brings together international expertise on economics, finance, geography, the environment, international development and political economy to establish a world-leading centre for policy-relevant research and training in climate change and the environment.
The Institute has been funded by philanthropists Jeremy and Hannelore Grantham, through their Grantham Foundation for the Protection of the Environment. It will work closely with the Grantham Institute for Climate Change at Imperial College London, established last year also with funding from the Grantham Foundation. A common advisory board will oversee the work of both Institutes.
Press release, April 17th 2008: The London School of Economics and Political Science has received over £12 million from philanthropists Jeremy and Hannelore Grantham to establish the Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change and the Environment.
