The aim of the Environmental Politics and Policy (EPP) Research Group is to develop a network of researchers working in the broad field of environmental policy and politics – from domestic policy to global governance, from local efforts to global civil society, from empirical research to political theory, we seek to include researchers who address all political aspects of the human/nature interface. The EPP Research Group will attempt to promote an increased awareness among social scientists of this interface, and seek to inform policy-makers of the potential implications of an enriched approach to environmental and ecological perspectives.
