Sustaining our Planet and People

Purpose: We aim to support the transformational changes necessary for human society to steer itself towards sustainable development.
People: Through a collaborative approach and partnerships, our researchers are delivering research and innovations in areas such as climate action, clean energy, ocean, freshwater and terrestrial ecosystems, sustainable bio-economy and One-Health.
Place: Our unique location on the Atlantic shore, surrounded by lakes, rivers and wetlands affords us a living laboratory. Internationally, our reputation in this area is led by research across all Colleges and by the work of our Ryan Institute and other research groups.
