RELU: The International Context

Project Status: Completed (See Final Report Summary)
Type of Project: Development Activity
Principal Investigator: Prof David Raffaelli, University of York (Email)

 

Objectives

Research agendas similar to those of RELU have been initiated by many international bodies, as well as many non-UK national and regional (e.g. European) funding agencies and international foundations. This project will review these initiatives to identify progress and best practice with regard to mechanisms for establishing interdisciplinary research, for capacity building in interdisciplinary science and in transferring knowledge to stakeholders and policy makers. The review will be communicated to all levels of the RELU community and enable RELU to be located within an international context.
