Natural Resources and Sustainable Development

The Natural Resources and Sustainable Development (NRHU) research programme focuses on different dimensions of the natural environment and the sustainable use of natural resources as the foundation for human societies. We aim to provide knowledge on identifying, exploring, and using natural resources securely and sustainably and to integrate this knowledge into governance systems and management practices. Our work considers complexity and interconnections between natural and man-made environments, often adopting interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary approaches. Research in Natural Resources and Sustainable Development is conducted both in Uppsala and at Campus Gotland.
