Background
The Environment & Climate Platform (BSUPEC) is one of four platforms in the initiative “Building Stronger Universities in Developing Countries” (BSU). BSU is a partnership between research and higher education institutions in developing countries and Danish universities. The overall objective of the BSU initiative is to strengthen universities in developing countries to increasingly play a role in the economic, social and political development of the societies in which they are located.
The BSUPEC initially involves partner institutions from Ghana, Tanzania and Denmark. The development objective of the platform is to contribute to informed and improved, sustainable natural resource management and environmental protection considering the needs for sustainable livelihoods, including adaptation and mitigation to climate change – through research capacity building in Ghana and Tanzania.
Based on relevance for environment and climate in Tanzania and reflecting the capacities, approaches and expertise within the research area, the BSUPEC has initially identified five academic focus areas: (i) Sustainable land use and management; (ii) Sustainable water use and management; (iii) Energy and waste in rural and urban linkages; (iv) Climate change; and (v) Sustainable innovations and planning.
The initiative receives core funding from Danida and is co-funded by the participating universities. Read more about the platform on www.bsuec.org.
