Mistra invites Swedish universities to establish an interdisciplinary research centre

Invitation for pre-proposals

Mistra invites Swedish universities to submit pre-proposals for a large-scale, interdisciplinary and internationally competitive academic research centre addressing sustainable governance and management of linked ecological and social systems. The centre shall be located at one geographical place and be organized by a Swedish university or by a local consortium of universities. The centre should have its own budget and a board with international participation.

Mistra´s vision is to make a difference for sustainable development by building a world leading research centre that will take the interdisciplinary research on linked ecological and social systems significant steps forward. Ultimate deliverables are new and elaborated insights and means for development of management and governance practices to secure ecosystem services.
