Maria Figueroa is one of only 11 researchers in Denmark contributing to AR7. As a Review Editor, she will ensure that expert, business, and government comments are thoroughly addressed, and that diverse scientific perspectives, including differing viewpoints, are fairly represented in the final report.

Her role is within Working Group III, focusing on climate change mitigation and more specifically πΆβ„Žπ‘Žπ‘π‘‘π‘’π‘Ÿ 11: π‘‡π‘Ÿπ‘Žπ‘›π‘ π‘π‘œπ‘Ÿπ‘‘ π‘Žπ‘›π‘‘ π‘šπ‘œπ‘π‘–π‘™π‘–π‘‘π‘¦ π‘ π‘’π‘Ÿπ‘£π‘–π‘π‘’π‘  π‘Žπ‘›π‘‘ π‘ π‘¦π‘ π‘‘π‘’π‘šπ‘ .

At our Centre, we are proud of this recognition and look forward to engaging with and learning from this critical international process, while continuing to build knowledge that informs policy, business, and society on pathways to a just, climate-resilient, and sustainable future.
