About us
The Centre for Research on the Economics of Climate, Food, Energy, and Environment (CECFEE) is dedicated to conducting in-depth economic research and analysis on the interlocking issues of climate change, energy security, environmental protection and food security in India. Some of CECFEE’s research projects also focus on the gendered dimensions of these core areas, as well as on women’s economic empowerment more broadly. The Centre seeks to facilitate a network of researchers on these issues across the country, and develop expertise to support the government in policymaking.
