Better governing the global commons: climate, biodiversity, oceans, outer space
The DECIMALS Fund

Solar radiation management geoengineering (SRM) is a controversial proposal for reducing some of the impacts of climate change by reflecting a fraction of sunlight away from the Earth. Developing countries should play a central role in global efforts to understand SRM, yet most research and discussion have taken place in the world’s richest countries. The DECIMALS fund builds the capacity of developing countries to evaluate SRM. It supports scientists in the Global South as they study how SRM could affect their regions, enabling research projects in South America, the Caribbean, Africa, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia. By building a collaborative global community of experts, the DECIMALS fund is transforming the environment in which decisions about SRM will be made, ensuring informed representation from climate-vulnerable regions.
