Inter-University Sustainable Development Research Programme Launched

1st December 2015

The Inter-University Sustainable Development Research Programme (IUSDRP) has been launched. The scheme, announced at WSD-U-2014 and now launched, is led by Manchester Metropolitan University (UK).

IUSDRP is not yet another network. Rather, it is a systematic programme to pursue and publish research on sustainability. It meets a perceived need for a university-based set-up focusing on research projects, scientific publications and PhD training on
matters related to sustainable development. It has a special focus on developing countries, whose participation in such networks is very limited.

Members of IUSDRP have already collaborated in various papers published in indexed journals, and are actively seeking further cooperation via externally-funded projects, and joint PhD training.
