Global Systems Institute
Securing our Future
The Global Systems Institute is applying Earth system science to generating networked solutions. Our aim is to work with others to secure a flourishing future for humanity as an integral part of a life-sustaining Earth system. We are uniting a trans-disciplinary group of researchers, educators and partners to look beyond single ‘environmental’ issues to a truly systemic view of coupled global changes in the human social and economic sphere and the biosphere.
As a new Institute we are in the early steps of our journey. We are identifying and developing pioneer projects or nodes of activity to create networks of transformative change.
