This portal captures research, information products and tools related to the climate of Maldives which was initiated by Lareef Zubair at Columbia University and the Foundation for Environment, Climate and Technology at the invitation of the Maldivian Ministry of Environment in 2008. Since then there has been a sustained sequence of projects related to climate research, climate information and risk management and adaptation.

The staff affiliated with us and the networks of organizations possess expertise in the relevant fields of climate, water resources management, disaster risk management, energy conservation and management, and we are uniquely positioned to contribute to the successful implementation of the above project. Our vision is to make FECT-MV a repository of scientific expertise related to climate and environment and a driver of further research and development.
