Focus: The climate and our society
There are different possible perspectives for tackling climate and environmental research. At Malmö University it might concern migration and climate, social work and environmental or climate issues, class, gender and climate, sustainable urbanisation in developing countries or processes for public governance in connection with sustainable urban development.

Research on display: New perspectives on climate research

In the autumn of 2021 Research on Display hosted three talks on the theme New Perspectives in Climate Research. The authors presented their research and articles through a talk and an exhibition about their article.
Research subject: Sustainability Studies

Sustainability Studies is rooted in the social movements for democracy and the environment of the 1960s and 1970s. It deals with the tensions between the three pillars of economics, environmental and social sustainability, and the concept of sustainable development.
