The UK’s Advanced Research & Invention Agency (ARIA) has selected Telescope and the Ditchley Foundation to convene a global network of experts in support of ARIA’s Forecasting Tipping Points Programme, pioneering next-generation early warning systems to detect climate tipping points before they escalate into crises.
Last quarter pushed Telescope forward in meaningful ways—building global partnerships that bring our mission to life, growing our team to tackle the most urgent challenges at the intersection of technology and society, highlighting tech-focused leaders in our network and hosting convenings of big thinkers.
This bold new initiative, part of ARIA's Forecasting Tipping Points programme, is designed to spark innovation at the intersection of science, technology, and policy, creating next-generation early warning systems that expand our ability to anticipate and understand climate tipping points.
