About ACT

ACT – Action on Climate Team is a state-of-the-art research-to-practice hub for the mobilization of climate change and sustainability knowledge and solutions. We work across sectors to mobilize relevant knowledge for practice.

Given a global climate crisis, Simon Fraser University embeds climate action throughout our operations, research, academics and community engagement. ACT is moving action on climate change from scholarship to practice and back to ensure that governments, organizations and individuals have the information they need to urgently address climate change and its global impacts—while transitioning toward sustainability goals.
