Our approach and impact
How we work
Degrees runs the largest SRM research programme in the world
We have supported more than 259 researchers working across 42 projects in 27 developing countries, awarding over $5 million in grants.
The experts that emerge from our programme go on to have an outsized impact on the field. They serve on UN panels, engage with local policymakers and ensure that when SRM is discussed, there are leading Southern voices to defend their interests and push back against misinformation.
