The University of Plymouth and University College Cork (UCC) have agreed on a climate partnership, which will begin by funding climate research by early career researchers. The studies are set to benefit from the complimentary expertise of both universities.

The partnership aims to support a range of climate actions including building resilient coastal communities, assisting economic sectors with energy transitions, and developing opportunities in the blue economy. It will also support the next generation of researchers in this area, so we can continue to learn more about how to tackle climate change.
