With a background in geography and anthropology I am leading a faculty independant organisation at Lund University - LUCSUS (Lund University Centre for Sustainability Studies), Sweden. We are currently about 20 researchers working of different aspects of sustainability science, ranging from livelihood studies in Africa to tools for integrated sustainability assessments.
