Through its members, the Malaysian Network for Research on Climate, Environment and Development (MyCLIMATE) will provide research support to the National Focal Point for UNFCCC and the Cabinet Committee on Climate Change in climate change research activities at national, state and local levels. It is also a network of individuals and organisations from various universities, government agencies and institutions interested in climate change issues to support sustainable development. The Secretariat of MyCLIMATE is hosted by LESTARI, UKM.

The main objectives of MyCLIMATE are as follows:

• Provide a platform for researchers and experts of various disciplines to interact with each other and engage policy-makers and practitioners involved in climate, environment and development;
• Promote policy-relevant multidisciplinary research and capacity building in addressing climate related issues in Malaysia and other developing countries; and
• Develop international linkages for supporting the country in planning, coordinating and implementing climate change and related agreements.
