PhD title:

Climate Change Loss and Damage - a critical deconstruction of international evidence-policy interactions.

Short abstract:

In a time where facts and evidence are increasingly questioned and contested, this study explores the extent in which 鈥榚vidence-based鈥� is policy evidence-based. This study relies on an ethnographic approach using participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and textual analysis to analyse the interactions between evidence and policy-making in the field of climate change Loss and Damage. Situated in the United Framework Convention of Climate Change 鈥楨xecutive Committee of the Warsaw International Mechanism for Loss and Damage associated with Climate Change Impacts鈥� (WIM ExCom), this study describes the evolution and institutionalisation of the concept of Loss and Damage and the power-dynamics between Loss and Damage actors at different policy and governance levels relevant to the Loss and Damage concept. This study contributes to the scholarship by deconstructing the complex relationship between 鈥榚xperts鈥� and 鈥榩olicy-makers鈥� and by illuminating the role power can play in policy-making and knowledge generation.
