Sustainable Consumption and Production (SCOPE)

Welcome

Sustainable Consumption and Production (SCOPE) is an EfD collaborative research program aimed to identify leverage points and associated interventions for triggering and enabling transformative changes at the level of consumers, producers, and organizations, thus accelerating diverse transformative pathways towards consumption and production that is in harmony with the natural environment. Such interventions should be sensitive to sociocultural contexts and rights; therefore, collaborative, cross-country research is of the utmost importance.
