Global Sustainability Institute (GSI)

Research institute at Anglia Ruskin University.

Delivering sustainability requires an integrated view of the world. Here at the Global Sustainability Institute (GSI), we're committed to playing a key role in developing practical solutions to the challenges facing humanity.

Key to this is bringing together the information needed to make decisions, with the people capable of taking action.

Our research focuses on personal motivations and systems change set against the challenges of sustainability. Our core research question is: how does the system influence the individual, and how does the individual influence the system?

The 'system' is the political, financial, industrial and social frameworks that contribute to challenges we face and lock us into future pathways. These may be environmental challenges such as climate change, natural capital challenges such as resource limits or social challenges such as local and global inequity.
