Meet the team
The Center for Climate IT aims to contribute with excellent, interdisciplinary research within the areas of climate change, sustainability, digitalization, and IT, and to participate actively in the public debate on climate IT. To do so, the CCIT has engaged a number of researchers across the IT University of Copenhagen. The strategic direction of the center is set by the coordination group.
