From innovation to migration, economic development to public policy, UNU-MERIT’s research is organized around seven themes based on broadly common approaches. Five research theme leaders have so far come on camera to explain the broad lines of their research programmes, covering methodologies, partners and expected impacts. More brief video interviews will be added in the coming weeks, as part of an ongoing effort to explain our work and balance visibility.
