The goal of the Center for Political Economy’s Political Economy of Climate Lab seminar series is to convene faculty, postdoctoral scholars, and graduate students from various disciplines across the university to engage in discussion of emerging concepts and issues within climate change that possess a distinct political economy focus.  During the Fall 2024 semester, the seminar series will focus on the political economy of forests.

Caroline Flammer, A. Barton Hepburn Professor of Economics at Columbia University, will discuss her research on biodiversity finance—the use of private capital to finance biodiversity conservation and restoration—as a new practice in sustainable finance.
