Stockholm Resilience Centre ►
Human pressures have eroded the capacity of many of the earth’s ecosystems to deliver services such as food, clean water and regulation of climate. Research carried out at this centre is developing our understanding of ecosystems, offering new tools for their management and governance, and providing advice to decision-makers at both the national and the international level.
