Sustainable Europe Research Institute Germany

Research for a sustainable Europe

At SERI Germany we explore sustainable development options for Europe and analyse the impact of European policies on other parts of the world. We work in interdisciplinary teams with expertise across natural sciences, economics, social sciences and humanities. We are dedicated to high standards of research quality, and emphasis the necessity of knowledge transfer, science-policy-society interfaces, and results having to stand the test of real-world applicability.

Our fellows, therefore, are active in civil society organisations, from environmental and environmental justice organisations via trade unions to religious institutions. To facilitate outreach, SERI Germany offers free access to studies, publications and educational material we produce as far as publishers’ restrictions permit doing so; we strongly support open access for all publications of research results.

SERI Germany e.V. was founded as a private, independent, not-for-profit research centre in 2005.
