SIPA Partners in Improving Energy Policy

The Center on Global Energy Policy is supported by Columbia University’s School of International & Public Affairs (SIPA) through contributions from different sources, including foundations, corporations, and individual donors who share Columbia’s commitment to improving energy policy through rigorous and independent analysis and engaged dialogue on global climate and energy issues. SIPA is deeply appreciative of those who have supported the work of its Center on Global Energy Policy.

All gifts must be approved via the University processes before being accepted. Unless otherwise noted in relevant research, publications, and conference materials, all contributions are general use gifts that allow SIPA and its Center on Global Energy Policy discretion in how the funds are allocated. Consistent with the University’s robust review and approval of all funding, certain gifts must be reviewed by the relevant University committees, including the Institutional Conflict of Interest Committee and International Gift Review Committee. More information on these policies is available via the University’s Office of Research Compliance and Training and the Office of Alumni and Development.
