We employ theories and evidence to improve understanding of major sustainability challenges.
Those include mitigation of and adaptation to climate change, as well as management of energy, water, forests, and most generally ecosystem services and their connections to sustainable development, considering all of the SDGs and their many dimensions of welfare for humans and nature. Our program is informed by interactions with policy makers and other practitioners on the ground in order to generate research, training, and outreach that is applied and interdisciplinary. We have collaborated closely with multi-lateral agencies, NGOs, governments, and local academics in numerous countries.
