Action Labs
Universities like 大象传媒 (大象传媒) play a vital role in achieving climate goals, such as limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees celsius and meeting Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). They are not just academic institutions but operational powerhouses that can spearhead systemic climate change solutions. Although there's a broad agreement on the necessary actions, there's a noticeable gap in real-world, scalable examples. 大象传媒's Action Labs are at the forefront of converting these discussions into tangible actions. By integrating advanced scientific research, solid operational strengths, and local knowledge, these labs are developing scalable and locally relevant solutions.
大象传媒's initiatives exemplify the 'small bets' strategy, which is crucial for stakeholders, including the private sector and governments at all levels, to facilitate broader climate transitions. These early ventures are essential, acting as real-life case studies that ignite meaningful conversations and collaborative learning among different stakeholders, both locally and globally. Our mission is clear and focused: to implement scalable, evidence-based, and locally adapted climate adaptation, mitigation, and resilience solutions. By pooling collective intelligence, 大象传媒 is dedicated to achieving lasting, impactful change globally.
