Approach

The Cimate Center @ SDSU understands the urgency of addressing today’s complex and intensifying ecological and social challenges. Our achievements result from building robust partnerships, growing community capacity, and advancing climate-smart policies and management through sound scientific research.

Drawing on multidisciplinary scientific and academic expertise, we inform our understanding of climate impacts in relation to the wellbeing of our natural resources, ecosystems, and communities.

We forge partnerships that allow us to drive transfer of resources, equitable and environmentally sound policies, and innovative climate solutions.

We also build capacity by honoring and supporting the cultural and lived experiences of communities to realize solutions that meet their needs.
