Forskningsgruppen Miljöpolitikgruppen

En av de ledande miljöforskningsgrupperna i Europa

Den mänskliga inverkan på miljön och naturresurserna väcker centrala statsvetenskapliga frågeställningar kring demokrati, maktutövning, politisk representation, internationell politik och diplomati.

Miljöpolitikgruppen (Environmental Politics Research Group, EPRG) vid Statsvetenskapliga institutionen bedriver forskning och undervisning kring frågor om samhällsstyrning för hållbar utveckling, internationell miljöpolitik, politisk ekonomi, vetenskaplig expertis, demokrati och grön politisk teori.

Miljöpolitikgruppens forskare deltar aktivt i olika tvärvetenskapliga forskarnätverk och lärarlag samt i populärvetenskapliga arrangemang vid och bortom Lunds universitet.
