Finding pathways to sustainability
in the real world
​We conduct interdisciplinary research to identify, design, and develop pathways to sustainability in the real world.
​
We develop novel approaches to
-
modelling sustainable production and consumption behaviours for identifying practical pathways
-
innovating technologies (e.g., data interoperability and artificial intelligence) for designing scalable pathways
-
constructing systemic solutions for developing real-world pathways.​
​​
Our approaches help businesses, consumers, and governments establish rigorous and efficient ways to sustainable production and consumption.
Our research has been applied to the food and drink and agricultural sectors.

Projects
SEEBEYOND project explores a market-led approach to facilitating sustainability transitions through optimising the efficiency of environmental reporting ecosystem. It began with the food and drink sector.
The project is funded by Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (formerly known as BEIS), Environment Agency (EA) and Department for Environment Food & Rural Affairs (Defra).
FoodPro
FoodPro helps food manufacturers improve food allergen management through designing a novel food allergen traceability system.
The system
-
embeds incentives into the design of food traceability technologies
-
provides an incentive-based approach to mitigating the risks of food allergen recalls.
The project is funded by Food Standards Agency.
