Project Details

Description

The “Advancing Strong Sustainability in the Nordic Social Science and Humanities (StrongSSH)” network takes ‘strong sustainability’ as a point of departure, and it aims to assist Nordic social science and humanities (SSH) research in further developing the field. The network brings together dedicated early career researchers working on food, energy and mobility, to develop a thorough research agenda on strong sustainability during a three-year long workshop series.

By discussing the newest theoretical and methodological developments together with ongoing empirical studies in the field of consumption and sustainability, we aim to identify factors that are important for research and policy to advance strong sustainability in the future. The discussions and collaborations will evolve throughout a workshop series consisting of both digital and in-person sessions, taking place between April 2023 and December 2024.
