Name: Research partnerships for mitigating syndromes of global change
Initiating organisation
NCCR North-South - Swiss National Centre of Competence in Research
Description: The NCCR North-South focuses on international research cooperation and promotes high-quality disciplinary, interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research with the aim of contributing to an improved understanding of the status of different syndromes of global change, of the pressures these syndromes and their causes exert on different resources (human, natural, economic), and of the responses of different social groups and society as a whole.
By identifying the potential of social systems to mitigate syndromes, by considering their dynamics, and by adopting existing innovative solutions, the NCCR North-South primarily aims to help design ways to mitigate syndromes. The NCCR North-South enables Swiss research institutions to enhance partnerships with institutions in developing and transition countries, thereby building the competence and capacity of research on both sides to develop socially robust knowledge for mitigation action.
