Jan-Albrecht Harrs has been working as a research assistant at GERICS in the BMBF-funded project WIRKsam since October 2020. As part of the funding measure Regional Information on Climate Action (ReglKlim), which develops specific and tailor-made solutions to support adaptation processes in six model regions, the cross-sectional project WIRKsam integrates the regional results and ensures their transferability and connectivity to strategy and agenda processes through a synthesis and transfer concept.

Previously, Jan worked as a Project Officer with the city network ICLEI and supported various IKI-funded international urban sustainability projects on topics such as renewable energy, participatory climate action plans, and climate finance. Furthermore, Jan conducted research on urban access to emission trading systems under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement and on climate-oriented building and infrastructure development. Jan holds a M.A. in Political Science from FU Berlin focusing on topics of environmental governance.
