IN THE CASE STUDY SERIES:
The first case study series provides examples of researchers who are working to promote a more Sustainable Future and focuses on the range of impacts they are creating through their research. Each case study provides a big picture description of how the researcher works towards making positive change in the world, with early career researchers describing how they plan for change, even if that change hasn’t yet been delivered.
