Steering Committee

The Steering Committee has a supervisory function over the ZKfN and decides on its strategic direction. Its members advise the ZKfN-office and enrich the Centre's work with their expert perspectives. One of the central tasks of the steering committee is also to set the topics for new Climate Future Labs. The steering committee consists of experts from various areas of society, such as science, associations, organisations and politics. The members of the steering committee serve on an honorary basis until the end of the first funding phase on 31 December 2027.
