Research · Bern
We conduct research and teaching on behalf of a more sustainable world. By spearheading and innovating transdisciplinary methodologies, our research teams, together with their global partners, chart inclusive pathways to address the underlying causes of today’s polycrisis. As a leading centre in sustainability transformations, we make contributions in four impact areas: • just economies and human well-being, • sustainable land systems, • sustainability governance, and • transformative education and science. We combine transformative and transformation research and education. Our research agenda is created within long-standing partnerships spanning the global North and South. One of our central concerns is to foster dialogue between science and society while contributing to global debates on sustainability and development.
