Key research area Negative emission technologies, or large scale carbon dioxide removal, are by many assessments, policy makers, industries and companies, seen as key to slow or halt climate change. Researchers at LUCSUS studies the narratives, implementation and impacts of these technologies from political, economical and justice perspectives. The research takes a critical perspective, and studie
Key research area The effects of climate change are causing great suffering, losses and damages, especially for the most vulnerable. LUCSUS research aims to identify where loss and damage from climate change is happening, whom it affects, why, and at what scale. In focus are questions relating to just adaptation, intersectionality and responsibility. Our work contribute towards addressing inevitab

Key research area at LUCSUS There is an urgent need for agriculture to drastically reduce its negative environmental impacts, while at the same time responding to increasing demand and adapting to a changing climate. For this to be possible, radical change in how we grow our major staple crops is essential. At LUCSUS researchers are studying both ecological, social and economic aspects of what a

Key research area The current climate and biodiversity crises are deeply intertwined with complex social, cultural and economic processes that also cause injustices around the world. Protecting ecosystems and the diversity of species that live in them cannot be separated from an understanding of the underlying factors driving climate change, biodiversity loss and the social injustices people exper

Key research area at LUCSUS Around the world, glaciers are retreating at unprecedented rates due to climate change. Billions of people are dependent on glaciers for their survival, and glaciers and mountain ecosystems support societies in many ways: providing water for drinking and agriculture, generating hydroelectric energy, driving tourism and other types of livelihoods, and as places of spirit
Key research area at LUCSUS Rural landscapes and communities across the world are impacted by significant changes and shifts related to broader trends, including urbanisation, agricultural intensification and climate change. Such transformations shape, and are shaped by, different actors and processes across scales and often involve contestations related to land use, resource allocation and decisi

key research area at LUCSUS Agriculture provides most of the food we eat and the fibers we wear while at the same time contributing up to 25% of global greenhouse gas emissions and consuming around 70% of global freshwater withdrawals. Navigating this tension between the societal necessity of agriculture and its environmental impacts is therefore at the heart of sustainable development. Within the

The novelty of MARS, and its innovation potential, is rooted in its approach comprising: 1) A solid international consortium, with participants based in 18 countries, involving leading specialists studying migratory processes in non-Western migration hubs, such as the Middle East, Central Asia, Eastern Europe, the Balkans, North Africa, the Gulf States, West and Sub-Saharan Africa, Latin America,

The MARS’s research programme is concerned with exploring such pressing questions as (1) whether empirical evidence and theoretical perspectives obtained from the study of non-Western migration locales actually contribute any generally valid lessons or knowledge that can inform the broader field of migration studies today; (2) or, whether these perspectives are marginal cases that are far too spec

According to the latest World Migration Report, 12 of the 20 top destinations for international migrants in 2020 were countries not belonging to what are considered traditional (western) migrant-receiving countries in North America, Western Europe, and Australia. International organisations currently estimate that the international stock of migrants amounts to about 282 million people. Nearly half

The latest World Migration Report reveals that, in 2020, 12 of the top 20 destinations for international migrants were non-Western countries. Despite this shift, mainstream literature predominantly concentrates on the experiences and policies of migrants in Western liberal democracies, leading to a noticeable gap in the representation of major non-Western migration destinations in current migratio
