Public policy support – Climate change
INRAE scientists and their partners talk about about the research, expertise, training and joint management activities they carry out together to inform public policy on climate change mitigation and adaptation.

Permanent public policy support systems
Within the research-expertise-public policy support continuum, permanent public policy support systems are dedicated to supporting public policies and have their own permanent resources. INRAE is involved in various ways in the research-expertise-public policy support continuum.
