About New Zealand Climate Change Centre
The New Zealand Climate Change Centre (NZCCC) was launched in 2008, in response to a perceived need for collaboration across providers of science-related climate research and services, and for mechanisms to facilitate interactions with end-users.
NZCCC activities to date have included:
- organising conferences, workshops & special events
- coordinating submissions on climate change matters
- coordinating nominations for climate change-related activities
- developing a website to provide information about climate change, NZCCC members, and their research projects
- producing a publication on climate change adaptation.
