Abstract
With an increasingly insistent tone, the voice of the IPCC is heard everywhere. The legitimacy of this voice has been built up over time and at the cost of strong institutionalization. Far from the original vision of its founders, who conceived it in 1988 as an informal structure at the service of decision-makers, the IPCC today brings together thousands of people and fosters dialogue between scientists and diplomats at international level. In this talk, we'll open the IPCC's black box and look at the rigor of the assessment process and the bureaucratic red tape it entails. We'll also look at the experts' negotiations with governments on the main conclusions.
