Stavins of the Harvard Project on Climate Agreements and Andreas Löschel of the Centre for European Economic Research (ZEW) presented research findings on the possibilities for building a hybrid and multi-level global climate regime.

Most of the research findings were drawn from a two-day workshop held jointly by the Harvard Project on Climate Agreements and the MCC in Berlin last May. The workshop was attended by thirty leading international researchers, decision makers and climate negotiators who came to identify and discuss options for a new international climate regime based on the Durban Platform for Enhanced Action.


The results have been summarized in a joint issue brief.
