As AIDMI and Transitions Research reflect on the Asia-Pacific workshop on extreme heat, several key themes emerge that underline the importance of collaboration and shared learning in advancing adaptation.
This report reflects aligned values and consensus around what a net zero future looks like for Panaji.
Based on the insights derived from our talk, ‘Can Digitalisation and AI Accelerate India’s Energy Transition’, this blog outlines the opportunities and challenges of harnessing artificial intelligence in meeting India’s energy goals.
Given the imminent and gargantuan nature of the challenge, this article draws from expert analyses to propose certain solutions that can be applied to urban cities, especially in the Global South.
On Saturday, June 8th, Transitions Research, along with the Goa Energy Development Authority (GEDA), conducted a visioning workshop for Panjim’s net-zero future. The purpose of this workshop was to co-create a shared vision for Net Zero Panjim in 2050 that reflects the views of its residents and key stakeholders. Through a series of interactive sessions …
In this dialogue, we hope to delve into the question of adapting to rising temperatures – exploring the role of policy and heat adaptation plans in addressing the uneven impacts of heat in urban communities, as well as the role of cooling technologies, which demand massive energy consumption and compromise our ability to achieve mitigation goals.
Transitions Research’s PULL Net Zero team, along with Tallulah D’Silva’s Travelling Dome, organised a series of Imagination Walks in Panaji, Goa, to better understand the visions locals have for the future of their city. Through this photo essay, we communicate our insights and the benefits of walks as a social science research methodology.
This episode of Talking about Transitions, explored the future of nature in growing cities and their role in reducing impacts of climate change as well as protecting the needs and aspirations of the vulnerable communities.
People’s Urban Living Lab (PULL) and Travelling Dome are hosting a series of Imagination Walks to envision what Panaji’s future looks like. Will we achieve our net zero pledge by 2050? What will our built environment look like? Where will our waste go? What will the role of nature be? Join us for a series of walks from March 15 to 17, 2024 to help us co-create shared visions for the future of our city.
For more effective low carbon mobility transitions, there is a need to consider the interlinkages between EV policies and urban mobility plans, policies governing energy transitions and carbon emitting sectors, consumer uptake, and lifecycle carbon emissions for EVs.
