Our Mission
What do we want to achieve, why do we work?
Higher-quality professional dialogue
We strive to elevate the standard of professional dialogue on climate change and to draw public attention to the real issues surrounding it. Our public appearances and events are carried out in this spirit.
Evidence-based decision-making
Well-founded planning
Greener financing
A safe, resilient country
Closer cooperation between science and decision-makers
We firmly believe in the importance of science-based decision-making—even in a “post-truth” world. Therefore, we strive to create as many opportunities as possible to channel scientific findings into decision-making in the broadest sense.

Climate and Security in Hungary
Climate change represents an equally profound long-term threat to Europe’s security. Its impacts extend far beyond the environment, affecting food and water security, public health, migration and macroeconomic stability. As such, climate resilience should be recognized as a core component of Europe’s security strategy.
Professional support for various Presidencies of the Council of the European Union
Our experts are involved in the preparations for the international climate policy tasks of various Presidencies of the Council of the European Union (Czechia in 2022, Hungary in 2024 and Cyprus in 2026) as well as in supporting the implementation of the Presidencies themselves. Their contributions are particularly focused on negotiations under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), and on the climate related negotiations under the European Council.
Project Mirror
Within the framework of the current project, the Green Policy Center is assessing potential national implementation pathways of the EU’s Fit for 55 climate policy package. Based on this analysis, the Center formulates recommendations for the revision of the measures included in Hungary’s National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP). Further information is available here.
