Our Partners

Dublin City University

Dublin City University’s School of Law and Government has a long-standing focus on the politics and sociology of international development, and the politics of EU integration and external action. The School’s Institute of International Conflict Resolution is concerned with resilience in, inter alia, South Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa, while DCU’s Ireland-India Institute has an ambitious agenda to strengthen research collaboration between Ireland and South Asia. The relationships between development, resilience and EU studies, as well as their practical manifestation on the ground in the specific context of South Asia, constitute a logical progression of DCU’s research agenda.

University of Liberal Arts Bangladesh

The University of Liberal Arts Bangladesh’s Center for Sustainable Development is the only research institution in the country whose sole academic remit is the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals in Bangladesh. CSD supports live research projects investigating women and minority rights in lands and forests, as well as the impact of agrarian change in Bangladesh’s southwest coastal belt on migration. The centrality of land to achievement of the SDGs makes it integral to CSD’s research agenda. CSD also has a commitment to facilitating the greater prominence voices of grassroots communities most affected by poverty and the threat posed by a changing climate in development discussions at national and international policy level.

Wageningen University and Research

Wageningen University’s Sociology of Development and Change group (SDC) focuses on the structures and practices of development and change with a particular scientific interest in inequality, marginalization and political agency. It is a politically engaged and interdisciplinary research and educational centre in development studies, political ecology, anthropology of law and crisis and disaster studies. The issue of land administration, and how it interacts with water management, gender, migration and resilience, is a core thematic area of our work, with a focus on South and Southeast Asia. The proposed project is therefore highly aligned with our research agenda
