Christian Kind
MSc Ecological Economics
Head of Programme Adaptation
Christian Kind is Head of Programme Adaptation. He is primarily concerned with analysing the consequences of climate change for different groups and developing strategies for dealing with climate risks. One special focus of Christian’s work is the evaluation of efforts to adapt to climate change.
“If we want to minimize the costs of global warming, we have to quickly learn how to deal with the impacts, like increasing periods of drought or more frequent extreme weather events. Being part of a very agile, interdisciplinary team at adelphi offers me the opportunity to contribute in this area.”
