RESEARCH
The Center's research is based within two interdisciplinary methodological approaches: quantitative and qualitative. The combinative use of the two has been a long goal of the Center with pioneering research in sustainability controls and systematization-biases of combining the two approaches. The Center has expert personnel that specialize in sustainable development, geographical statistics, and environmental disciplinary research. Common sustainability indices that utilize one of these two approaches show the diverse nature and wide range of our research expertise. A tabular example under Sustainability Indices elucidates this research and its significance.
