Master's Programme in Geographies of Sustainable Development

Our planet faces environmental, social and economic sustainability challenges that must be addressed through a knowledge-based approach. People experience challenges locally, but causes and solutions are interconnected with global processes beyond the North-South divide. This programme gives you the framework, theories and skills to constructively engage with global sustainability issues.

This programme will introduce you to ongoing scientific discourses on human-environment relations and development. You will learn about theoretical approaches to important current issues and be trained in using appropriate methods for researching and evaluating factors affecting both the environment and people’s livelihoods.
