Welcome to the Developing Sustainability Network!
Since 2009 researchers and students from six partner universities collaborate within this network Developing Sustainability, situated at Carl von Ossietzky University Oldenburg, Center for Environment and Sustainability Research COAST. Based on an integrated approach with its core themes "Renewable Energy", "Biodiversity, Land Use, Marine and Coastal Management", and "Sustainable Enterprise & Environmental Management Information Systems", the network develops the thematic interlinkages between these fields and facilitates the exchange of experiences, knowledge and concepts in research and teaching. The Network with its partner institutions in South Africa, Tanzania, Mexico, Indonesia, Cuba and Germany focuses its activities in teaching and research on ensuring environmental sustainability according to MDG 7. The project is funded by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD).
The partner institutions of University of Oldenburg within this Network are:
- Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University, Port Elisabeth, South Africa (NMMU)
- University of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania (UDSM)
- University of Quintana Roo, Mexico (UQR)
