Institute of Ethics and Transdisciplinary Sustainability Research
Organisational unit: Institute
Organisation profile
In the professorship, we address three main challenges for the fulfilment of this aspiration:
- Consolidate the epistemological and methodological foundations of transdisciplinary sustainability research.
- Enhance research at the science/society interface that has both scientific and societal relevance.
- Enable students, researchers and societal actors to contribute to societal transformation with local and global impact.
We are rooted/embedded in the Faculty of Sustainability and collaborate with different institutes at Leuphana and research institutions from around the world as well as with different societal actors and institutions from the private and public sector in Lueneburg and beyond.
We creatively combine conceptual and empirical research with the development of new formats and environments.
