Project Details
Description
ACCESS is a funded programme of work providing leadership on the social science contribution to tackling and solving a range of climate and environmental problems.
We recognise that technology alone is not enough and we are working to share our understanding of how people, our societies and our systems need to change and adapt to create a healthier environment and meet our net zero goals.
The ACCESS team includes world-leading social science and interdisciplinary experts led by the Universities of Exeter and Surrey in a core team that includes
University of Bath
University of Leeds
University of Sussex
University of Portsmouth
Natural Environment Social Research Network
(Natural Resources Wales, NatureScot, Natural England, Environment Agency and Forest Research)
The ACCESS core team is complemented by a wider network of expertise drawn from academic and stakeholder partners across UK devolved nations and internationally.
Partners include:
Strathclyde University
Queens University Belfast
Cardiff University
Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research
Manchester University
Plymouth Marine Laboratory
University of Sydney
Stakeholders across policy, business and civil society at local and national levels including:
Welsh Government (WG)
Scottish and Southern Energy (SSE)
Chartered Institute of Water and Environmental Management (CIWEM)
National Trust (NT)
Academy for Social Sciences (AcSS)
