The Sustainability & Resilience Institute at the University of Southampton

In this episode of the Meliora Podcast we focus on the new interdisciplinary Sustainability and Resilience Institute (SRI) at the University of Southampton.  The SRI formally launched on Wednesday 1st November, and to support this event host Professor Simon Kemp is joined by Professor Craig Hutton (Director) and Associate Professor Dr Lindsay-Marie Armstrong (Deputy-Director) to discuss all matters SRI.  Sustainability requires collaboration between society, policy-makers, business and universities. The SRI is providing an open door for all people, across all sectors, to get involved with this sustainability challenge, with a focus on the university as the venue for this interdisciplinary collaboration work. By addressing some of the greatest issues that pose an existential threat to the world, the SRI creates an opportunity to bring communities together. From decarbonization to the tools and methods required for sustainability, this episode explores the main research themes of the SRI, not only within the University, but also in the wider community.  Please note, this episode does not include the final, full SRI team as it was recorded before appointments were confirmed.Get involved with the SRI: https://www.southampton.ac.uk/research/institutes-centres/sustainability-resilience-institute  Follow us on instagram and X(twitter): @meliorapodcastHost: Prof Simon Kemp Guests: Prof Craig Hutton and Dr Lindsay-Marie Armstrong Editor: Sophie Green
