TERI has an extensive global outreach, with affiliate institutes in North America and Europe and active presence in CIS countries, Central Asia and Middle East, South Asia, Japan, and Africa. Through its research, TERI has made significant contribution to the international climate debate, especially from the perspective of a developing country wherein efficient use of natural resources and protection of the environment are seen as essential prerequisites for economic welfare.
