The European Union is among the top funders of the evidence base underpinning the IPCC reports, contributing to improving the effectiveness of both national and international climate policies and processes, and building public support for more ambitious climate action.

Coinciding with the approval of the IPCC Working Group III report on Mitigation of Climate Change, the European Commission has published a brochure, putting a spotlight on and celebrating the contribution of EU-funded projects to pushing the boundaries of the underlying science. The brochure provides examples of projects funded by Horizon 2020 — the EU Framework Programme for Research and Innovation — which provide the evidence-base for guiding the transition to climate neutrality in Europe and across the globe.

PARIS REINFORCE is among these projects, in the thematic of Socio-Economic Scenarios and Transition Pathways.
