Welcome to ACCESS.
ACCESS aims to provide leadership on the social science contribution to tackling and solving a range of environmental problems. Building a network of experts and policymakers with cross-disciplinary approaches and expertise to find and implement solutions to today's climate change challenges.
A five-year climate and environment social science project funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC). It is headed by Professor Patrick-Devine Wright of the University of Exeter, with Professor Birgitta Gatersleben of the University of Surrey as Deputy Director.
The core team includes Universities of Bath, Leeds and Sussex and the Natural Environment Social Research Network (Natural Resources Wales, NatureScot, Natural England, Environment Agency and Forest Research).
The team's expertise spans a wide range of climate areas with a social science focal point that include, but are not limited to; resilience and vulnerability in communities impacted by environmental change; health, wellbeing, social justice and access to nature; risk and net zero climate technologies & behavioural change in relation to mobility, diet and heating. Other focuses include; social and technological innovation, net zero and industrial decarbonisation; economics of nature-based solutions to climate change; and citizens assemblies and the politics of climate mitigation.
Our partners include Strathclyde University, Queens University Belfast, Cardiff University, Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research, Manchester University.
Our current group of stakeholders includes the Welsh Government (WG), Scottish and Southern Energy (SSE), Chartered Institute of Water and Environmental Management (CIWEM), National Trust (NT), Academy for Social Sciences (AcSS), Community Energy England (CEE), Winchester Science Centre (WSC), Devon and Surrey County Councils (DCC, SCC).
