    INCT para Mudancas Climaticas Fase 2
    The INCT for Climate Change Phase 2 (INCT MC Phase 2) aims to implement and develop a comprehensive network of interdisciplinary research on global change and sustainability, and is based on the cooperation between about 30 research groups from all regions of Brazil and 4 international research groups, involving in its entirety over approximately 350 researchers, students and collaborators and establishing itself as one of the largest networks of environmental research developed in Brazil.

    The program consists of six thematic lines (or subcomponents): 1. Food security; 2. Water security; 3. Energy security; 4. Health and climate change; 5. Natural disasters, impacts on physical infrastructure in urban areas and urban development; 6. Impacts on Brazilian ecosystems in view of changes in land use and biodiversity.

    All these components are connected via 3 integrative themes or cross cutting themes:
    1. Economy and impacts in key sectors;
    2. Modelling the earth system and production of future climate scenarios to study vulnerability, impacts, adaptation and resilience; 3. Communication, dissemination of knowledge and education for sustainability.

    The development of the INCT MC Phase 2 scientific agenda will provide optimum conditions for the country to develop scientific excellence in various areas of global environmental change and its implications for sustainable development, especially when you consider that the economy of developing nations is strongly associated with renewable natural resources, as is strikingly the case in Brazil.

    The emphasis on the impacts of global climate change on agriculture, health, renewable energy, urban development, and natural disasters such as central themes integrated with environmental modelling, the economics and the communication of these impacts to the public, scientific community and academic sector, industry business and government can contribute to maintain excellence in activities in Science & Technology & Innovation as the axis of sustainable environmental development, with an integrative and innovative character.

    This project includes knowledge transfer using instruments that go beyond only scientific articles, but producing audio-visual, web tools, and other outlets that allow a scientific education of the population, improving the impact of Brazilian science and also a greater international integration of Brazil in environmental negotiations.
