Capital4Health takes a transdisciplinary approach to researching how healthy lifestyles can be promoted, linking science, target groups and health stakeholders.
Transdisciplinarity is essential for transformation-oriented sustainability research because the complex challenges associated with social-ecological transformations cannot be solved within the boundaries of individual disciplines. These challenges require the collaboration of natural, social, and engineering sciences and the humanities, as well as of actors from politics, business, and civil society.
