Accelerating transitions together
for a climate-resilient future
The transition to a climate-resilient, just future is waiting on a breakthrough. We’re not moving fast enough. Together, researchers, policymakers, and climate workers can make a difference. To do so, knowledge needs to flow freely. From science to practice and vice versa. The Dutch Climate Research Initiative (KIN) breaks down existing barriers and encourages collaboration. This way, we can accelerate the climate transition together. To make your work matter even more.

The state has treated the inhabitants of Bonaire unfairly compared to people in the European Netherlands, thereby violating human rights. The reactions to the ruling were emotional, relieved, and cautiously hopeful. The ruling confirms what Bonaireans…
What is the Dutch Climate Research Initiative (KIN)?
The Dutch Climate Research Initiative (KIN) is an organisation that broadens, deepens and unlocks knowledge for just transitions to a climate-neutral and climate-resilient society. Climate change affects everyone. Systemic change is needed to build a liveable future for coming generations. We enable social partners to realise these systemic changes. KIN is part of the Dutch Research Council (NWO).
