Researching Sustainability
Research dimensions
We are currently focusing on a total of seven key research areas, i.e. four fields of action and three related normative dimensions. Individual topics (such as raw materials, intersectionality, international political economy, decent work, etc.) are assigned to the research dimensions. Here we distinguish between existing projects and Future Labs (as projects in the making).
