What is CLARE?

CLARE is jointly designed and run by the United Kingdom’s Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) and Canada’s International Development Research Centre (IDRC). Through long-term commitments and partnerships worldwide, and needs-driven, action-focused research, CLARE is bridging critical gaps between science and action: developing new tools and supporting partner governments, communities, and the private sector to use evidence and innovation to drive effective solutions to the climate challenge, whilst building the capacity of both those carrying out the research and those using the resulting evidence. CLARE is primarily funded by UK aid along with Canada’s IDRC.
