INTERGOVERNMENTAL PANEL ON CLIMATE CHANGE – IPCC

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is the leading
international body for the assessment of climate change. It was established by
the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the World Meteorological
Organization (WMO) in 1988 to provide the world with a clear scientific view on
the current state of knowledge in climate change and its potential environmental
and socio-economic impacts. In the same year, the UN General Assembly endorsed
the action by WMO and UNEP in jointly establishing the IPCC.


The IPCC is a scientific body under the auspices of the United Nations (UN). It
reviews and assesses the most recent scientific, technical and socio-economic
information produced worldwide relevant to the understanding of climate change.
It does not conduct any research nor does it monitor climate related data or
parameters.


Thousands of scientists from all over the world contribute to the work of the
IPCC on a voluntary basis. Review is an essential part of the IPCC process, to
ensure an objective and complete assessment of current information. IPCC aims to
reflect a range of views and expertise. The Secretariat coordinates all the IPCC
work and liaises with Governments. It is supported by WMO and UNEP and hosted at
WMO headquarters in Geneva.


The IPCC is an intergovernmental body. It is open to all member countries of the
United Nations (UN) and WMO. Currently 195 countries are members of the IPCC.
Governments participate in the review process and the plenary Sessions, where
main decisions about the IPCC work programme are taken and reports are accepted,
adopted and approved. The IPCC Bureau Members, including the Chair, are also
elected during the plenary Sessions.


Because of its scientific and intergovernmental nature, the IPCC embodies a
unique opportunity to provide rigorous and balanced scientific information to
decision makers. By endorsing the IPCC reports, governments acknowledge the
authority of their scientific content. The work of the organization is therefore
policy-relevant and yet policy-neutral, never policy-prescriptive.
