About
In July 2014, the International Council for Science launched Road to Paris, an experiment by the scientific community to create an independent media project around climate change and sustainable development. Looking ahead at the pivotal year of 2015 that was to bring new international political agreements on climate change, disaster risk reduction and sustainable development, we identified a niche for a new voice that would connect the dots across the science/policy/economics nexus. Road to Paris was designed to be that voice. The ambition was to complement and augment existing coverage of this space by providing a science focus on these politicized issues.
