Explore our strategy to learn how we’re making a difference in the face of one of the greatest challenges of our time.

Organisation

 

The Greenland Climate Research Centre is a department in the Greenland Institute of Natural Resources. We differ from the other departments in being an external financed research department.

 

We are linking The Greenland Institute of Natural Resources and Ilisimaturafik (Greenland University) through covering both natural and social sciences creating collaborative links between the institutions and disciplines. Through our educational activities, we are linking the Greenland Institute of Natural Resources to the other educational institutions in Greenland.

Funding

The Greenland Climate Research Centre receives annual funding from the Danish Ministry of Higher Education and Science. Every year, the GCRC manages to triple this amount of financial support by submitting applications to a long list of international and national funding agencies and private foundations.
