About us
Who we are
DEGREES stands for DEveloping country Governance REsearch and Evaluation for SRM. We are an NGO dedicated to putting the Global South at the centre of the SRM conversation.
Our culture and values
Our Vision
We envision a future with experts from every region of the Global South playing a central role in the evaluation and governance of SRM.
Our Mission
We are changing the global environment in which SRM is evaluated, ensuring informed and confident representation from developing countries.
Our Values
Neutrality
We are neutral on SRM and will neither promote nor oppose it.
Commitment to mitigation
We believe that SRM should only be considered as a potential temporary supplement to reductions of greenhouse gas emissions, which must remain the primary focus of climate policy.
Inclusiveness
Degrees has been working for over a decade to ensure a more inclusive global conversation around SRM. We believe that such a conversation is essential if the world is to make informed and equitable decisions about SRM.
Academic excellence
We aim to expand the discussion of SRM’s potential risks and benefits, taking account of science, social science and governance. We will work to ensure that evaluation of SRM is informed by the best available evidence, and that it is analysed in the context, with impacts and implications compared both to today’s climate and to a warmed world.
