Navroz K. Dubash is a Professor of Public and International Affairs and the High Meadows Environmental Institute at Princeton University. His work explores emergent patterns of climate governance suitable to meet the twin challenges of the climate crisis and unmet development aspirations. He has written on national climate policy, international cooperation, energy transitions and air quality, with particular interest in multidisciplinary approaches to these complex issues.
Dubash joined the Princeton faculty after fifteen years of working in India with the Centre for Policy Research, and subsequently with the Sustainable Futures Collaborative (SFC), which he co-founded with colleagues. He continues to chair the Advisory Council of SFC, an independent non-profit research organisation focused on sustainable development.
He is currently co-Editor in Chief of Climate Policy and has published widely on climate change, energy, and air pollution in leading journals. He has also authored two books and edited ten edited collections. He has also written regularly for the media, including an ‘Expert Voices’ column for Science.
Dubash has been active as a researcher and policy advisor on climate and energy issues for 25 years. He has served on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), most recently as Coordinating Lead Author for the Sixth Assessment Report, and as a member of the steering committee for the UNEP Emissions Gap Report. He has advised the Government of India over the last decade as a member of advisory committees on climate change, energy, and air and water policy, and coordinated a team to draft India’s Long-Term Low Emissions Development Strategy. Early in his career, he helped establish the global Climate Action Network as its first international coordinator.
