<div dir="ltr">The IASS has a 50 % position open for someone with a political science background in the ClimAct project.<br><br>The
ClimAct project is designed to build a bridge between the scientific
expertise of the IASS and climate action within national and
international political processes, with particular emphasis on the
United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) climate
negotiations and the activities of the Climate and Clean Air Coalition
(CCAC;<a href="http://www.ccacoalition.org/">http://www.ccacoalition.org/</a>). In this context,the primary aim of
the project is to connect academic knowledge on climate science and
governance to on-the-ground actions that put society on a path to
reaching major international goals such as theParis Agreement climate
goal. In addition, the project will help develop a better understanding
of the role of international institutions like the UNFCCC and CCAC in
this process, especially in light of the synergies and conflicts between
the related societal and political goals of climate change mitigation,
improved air quality, and good health.<br><div style="font-size:16.6px;font-family:sans-serif"><br></div>
