She has worked as a consultant on energy, environment, and climate for numerous national and international organizations and has an extensive publication record. In September 1994, she joined the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA, Laxenburg) as Deputy Director for Programs, where she was responsible for the implementation and coordination of the research program. From October 1996 till May 1998 she was Deputy Director of IIASA.

In 2001, Jill Jäger was one of the co-editors of two volumes on “Learning to Manage Global Environmental Risks”, which presented the results of a multi-year, international endeavour to understand social learning processes in the area of global environmental change (www.ksg.harvard.edu/sl). She co-authored, among others, chapters on issue framing, evaluation and linking knowledge to action. This work, together with a subsequent project on global environmental assessment processes (www.ksg.harvard.edu/gea), led to her participation in the international Initiative on Science and Technology for Sustainability (http://sustainabilityscience.org). From 2005 to March 2008, she was a member of the Core Group of the EU-funded MATISSE (Methods and Tools for Integrated Sustainability Assessment) project (www.matisse-project.net), in which she also led the work package on stakeholder engagement and dissemination.
