Climate intervention technologies (CIT) include several technologies in proposed, theoretical, or experimental stages that aim to modify the earth’s climate, including through the removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere or the reflection of sunlight into the atmosphere. Both climate change and the potential use of CIT will challenge human societies and have far reaching impacts on the natural environment. There is a high degree of uncertainty about whether such technologies would work, who would benefit and who would suffer from their use, where such technologies might be located, what their effects would be on surrounding populations, and what their impact would be to those already most vulnerable in society. The significant potential for disruption and conflict surrounding CIT leads to the importance of exploring the social dimensions of these technologies to inform how society might make decisions about them. This planning grant explores the opportunities, resources and organizations needed for creating a global research center for participatory, inclusive, and responsible governance of climate intervention technologies (CIT). The envisioned transdisciplinary center will undertake comparative empirical social science research in the global north and south to explore public views on CIT research and deployment and how this research can be integrated into governance. A central focus of the envisioned Center for Participatory Assessment and Governance of Climate Intervention Technology Research is how knowledge of geographically and demographically contingent public values and perspectives can inform collaborative decision-making on CIT research, testing, and deployment at national and global scales. The planning team uses participatory technology assessment (pTA), an inclusive and deliberative public engagement model, as an overarching framework for integrating research and practice across this center. Towards this end, the planning grant convenes core collaborators to identify pathways of inquiry along five focal research areas related to CIT: (i) Foresight and Assessment, (ii) Expert and Stakeholder Engagement, (iii) Anticipatory and Polycentric Governance, (iv) Evidence-based Decision and Policy Making, and (v) Civic and Informal Education and Training to inform a center for participatory assessment and governance of CIT. Targeted outreach through interviews, meetings or workshops with CIT researchers, developers, funders, policy stakeholders, and potential collaborators and creation of white papers will identify gaps, needs and opportunities within the five focal research areas. A wider group of collaborators will convene to assess the white papers to create an integrated, interdisciplinary, and comprehensive research agenda, and develops recommendations for a future center for research and innovation in participatory assessment and governance of CIT.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

气候干预技术（英语：Climate intervention technologies，CIT）是指一些处于提议、理论或实验阶段的旨在改变地球气候的技术，包括通过从大气中去除二氧化碳或将阳光反射到大气中。气候变化和CIT的潜在使用将对人类社会提出挑战，并对自然环境产生深远影响。这些技术是否有效、谁将受益于这些技术、谁将因使用这些技术而受害、这些技术可能位于何处、它们将对周围人口产生何种影响、以及它们将对社会中已经最脆弱的人产生何种影响，这些问题都存在高度的不确定性。围绕CIT的破坏和冲突的巨大潜力导致了探索这些技术的社会维度的重要性，以告知社会如何做出决定。该计划拨款探索了创建一个全球研究中心所需的机会，资源和组织，以实现气候干预技术（CIT）的参与性，包容性和负责任的治理。设想的跨学科中心将在全球南北方开展比较实证社会科学研究，以探讨公众对CIT研究和部署的看法，以及如何将这项研究纳入治理。 设想的气候干预技术研究的预测性评估和治理中心的一个中心焦点是，地理和人口统计学上的公共价值和观点的知识如何能够为国家和全球范围内的CIT研究、测试和部署的协作决策提供信息。规划团队使用参与式技术评估（pTA），一个包容性和审议的公众参与模型，作为一个总体框架，整合研究和实践在这个中心。为此，规划补助金召集核心合作者，以确定调查沿着与CIT相关的五个重点研究领域的途径：（i）Foengland和评估，（ii）专家和利益相关者参与，（iii）预期和多中心治理，（iv）循证决策和政策制定，以及（v）公民和非正式教育和培训，为CIT的参与性评估和治理中心提供信息。 通过与CIT研究人员、开发人员、资助者、政策利益相关者和潜在合作者的访谈、会议或研讨会以及编写白色文件，有针对性地开展外联活动，将确定五个重点研究领域内的差距、需求和机会。一个更广泛的合作者小组将召开会议，评估白色文件，以创建一个综合的，跨学科的，全面的研究议程，并制定建议，为未来的研究和创新中心的参与性评估和治理的CIT。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过评估使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准的支持。
