Environmental Politics Research Group: Guest talks by Georgia de Leeuw and Eric Brandstedt

Environmental Politics Research Group (EPRG) 

– One of Europe’s leading research groups on environmental politics

The interactions between humans, nature and the wider environment raise important questions for contemporary political analysis spanning a range of foci, from public policy and governance to the study of democracy, power, interests and norms, and the debate on the Anthropocene.

The Environmental Politics research group (EPRG) comprises a wide array of international scholars whose research focuses on key challenges of environmental and sustainability politics from global to local levels.

EPRG members deal with a diverse set of topics including the current democratic decline and related questions of accountability and legitimacy, growing institutional complexity, public policies of biodiversity conservation and climate change mitigation and adaptation, the effectiveness of different types of governance arrangements, and futuring practices for transformative change.

With a strong foundation in political science, members of the EPRG are engaged in inter- and trans-disciplinary research initiatives, education and teaching programmes, and outreach activities throughout and beyond Lund University.
