Climate change raises key issues of justice: How should the burdens of climate change adaptation and mitigation be distributed, based on what sort of justice criteria? How are epistemic and justice dimensions entangled in the production of scientific knowledge about climate change? Which values underlie the governance of climate change in its broadest sense? And to what extent does justice, as fairness, figure in the multiple scientific, policy, and legal decision-making processes? Heading to answer these questions, the cluster understands climate justice as a broad concept with normative import and connects multiple disciplines: science, ethics, law, and politics/policy.
