AN INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH TEAM IN SWEDEN AND SUDAN

This current RUS project specifically involves collaboration between researchers in Sweden (Malmö University, Lund University) and Sudan (Khartoum University) and combine environmental sciences, humanities and social sciences. In order to ensure a societal relevance and greater impact on the ground, local communities and stakeholders will be key in developing community climate action and the formulation of policy recommendations. The research team believes that only a participatory approach is effective to strengthen capacity to enhance social, cultural and environmental sustainability in marginalised neighbourhoods, among diverse groups of people and in Sudan.
