GCSE Applied Solutions

The Opportunity

Academic scientists and local government leaders at the Global Council for Science and the Environment (GCSE) are uniquely positioned to accelerate the use of science and evidence to inform and make more durable local government environmental decisions and policies. Working with universities, local government leaders can access and maximize data collection and research tools to rationalize their policies to better meet their individual community-level climate goals. 

Applied Solutions was established in 2009 as an independent nonprofit. Recognizing the value for science that GCSE and Applied Solutions communities share in common, the two organizations merged in 2020. Today GCSE Applied Solutions is growing a community of scientists and local decision-makers to work together to share and leverage experiences spanning work at the policy and implementations levels. By sharing knowledge, lessons learned, and best practices, local governments and institutions of higher education around the world can unlock science-informed solutions to mitigate ecosystem degradation, biodiversity loss, climate change, and to protect ecosystem services and communities ranging from people, to flora and fauna. ​​​​​​
