The Loss and Damage Research Observatory is an online platform aimed at addressing the knowledge gap related to non-economic loss and damage caused by climate change. It is a resource-rich, informed space for networking, research sharing and practical problem-solving by stakeholders.

The Loss and Damage Research Observatory is crucial because it helps researchers, policymakers and the general public access information, research and methodologies related to non-economic loss and damage, in addition to information about economic loss and damage due to climate change. It facilitates collaboration and knowledge sharing, improving the understanding of climate change impacts beyond economic losses.

The Loss and Damage Research Observatory offers a wide range of content, including research papers, analyses, methodologies, findings, case studies, blogs, best practices and other materials related to non-economic loss and damage. It also includes updates about developments in loss and damage research.

The Loss and Damage Research Observatory is designed to benefit a diverse audience, including academics, policymakers, researchers and the general public. It serves as a valuable literature repository for anyone seeking to explore and conduct research on the subject of non-economic loss and damage caused by climate change.

The Loss and Damage Research Observatory focuses specifically on non-economic loss and damage, which is often overlooked in climate change discussions. It provides a dedicated space for this critical aspect of climate change and offers tools and methodologies for its assessment.

No, the Loss and Damage Research Observatory is not limited to researchers and experts. While it offers in-depth research materials, it also provides accessible findings and assessments suitable for the general public. It aims to engage a wide range of stakeholders.

The Loss and Damage Research Observatory is co-developed and co-owned by researchers, practitioners, experts and institutions. You can contribute by sharing your research, methodologies or expertise and by engaging with the platform's content and activities.

The Loss and Damage Research Observatory encourages collaboration through the creation of knowledge networks, peer support, mentorship programmes and collaborative research projects. This fosters a collaborative and supportive environment for researchers working on non-economic loss and damage.

The Loss and Damage Research Observatory is expected to lay the foundations for a collaborative South–South–North community of practitioners. It aims to facilitate policy advocacy, informed dialogues, and the scaling up of effective loss and damage risk reduction approaches. Ultimately, it seeks to provide an authoritative assessment and presentation of the evidence base on loss and damage to reach diverse audiences and influence policy discussions.
