The 2021 Global Environmental Justice Conference at the Yale School of the Environment will focus on a just green recovery.

Who are we highlighting today? Dr. Narasimha Rao! We’re happy to share that Dr. Rao will be a discussant for our 2021 Global Environmental Justice Conference panel, “Pathways to a green and just recovery for energy systems, housing and communities.”

Dr. Rao is an Associate Professor of Energy Systems at Yale School of the Environment and serves as a Senior Research Scholar at the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis. With a focus on energy systems, climate change, and inequality, Dr. Rao is interested in equity in energy transitions, and the impacts of climate change and its mitigation on poverty around the world.
