This funding is intended to support research in lower- and middle-income countries on the potential physical and socio-political implications of solar radiation management (SRM). We see supporting researchers, especially those outside the Global North, as a promising step towards improving governance around SRM. And we continue to view SRM governance as a field that is largely neglected by philanthropists and governments. This follows our September 2017 support and falls within our work to reduce global catastrophic risks. The grant amount was updated in September 2024.
