Sustainable Economic Growth
IIEP and its faculty specialize in the study of the economic determinants and socio-economic consequences of climate change. IIEP and its faculty publish books, working papers, articles, and op-eds on the socio-economic consequences of climate change, potential adaptation policies in rural and urban areas, and region-specific effects of climate change in India, Africa, and elsewhere in the world. Every year, IIEP organizes various events related to sustainable economic growth to share this research with the DC policy and academic community. For example, we organize an annual conference on The Economics of Sustainable Development with various partners including the World Bank. We also organize workshops and seminars where prominent policy and academic speakers can share their views and solutions to the problems of climate change mitigation, resilience, and adaptation.
