The Research England funded South Yorkshire Sustainability Centre brings together teams of experts to apply their sector knowledge to some of the most serious challenges facing society.

Our approach is designed to consider all aspects of a challenge and develop and implement solutions which balance environmental, economic and social sustainability.

We do this by applying knowledge from four work packages, chosen to balance these factors. By applying these lenses to problems, we are able to compare, prioritise and design the most impactful interventions for South Yorkshire's sustainability challenges.
