Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is an intergovernmental body established to assess the scientific, technical, and socio-economic information relevant to understanding climate change. It produces comprehensive assessment reports that inform global climate policy, including negotiations under the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change. The IPCC does not conduct original research but synthesizes peer-reviewed literature to provide policymakers with evidence-based evaluations of climate risks, mitigation pathways, and adaptation strategies.
