Scientific coordination of the funding initiative „An environmentally and socially compatible transformation of the German energy system”

Since 2013 a total of 33 collaborative research projects are dealing with various aspects of an “Environmentally and socially compatible transformation of the German energy system”. The Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) has included this initiative into the funding priority Social-Ecological Research (SÖF) and has assigned the Öko-Institut together with the ISOE with the coordination of the funding initiative.

Transdisciplinarity

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.
