A copy of the institution's definition of sustainability research:
Sustainability: The ability to meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. The scope of 'sustainability' ranges from environmental to social and economic issues, and seeks to establish a balance of these things so as to ensure diversity and well-being for now and for the future.
Issues/ topics like fair wages and working conditions, poverty relief, environmental stewardship, resource management, supply and demand, local economies/ business, etc. all fall under the umbrella of sustainability.
Sustainability-related research concentrates on the concept of sustainability, including its social, economic, and environmental dimensions, or examines an issue or topic using sustainability as a lens, or concentrates on a single sustainability principle or issue.
