As a graduate research assistant, Shiyue Zhou analyzes climate-related financial flows to assess whether climate projects in Southeast Asia are meaningfully supporting mitigation or adaptation goals. Her work supports Duke's Climate Dialogue & Innovation Initiative: Southeast Asia and the World, led by Professor Jonathan Stromseth.

"Growing up in Asia, I became interested in how economic growth and climate challenges affect each other and what that means for financial systems,” says Shiyue, a Master in Interdisciplinary Data Science student.
