Institute for Sustainable Solutions

There has never been a more important time to tackle the big issues and find answers to the tough questions.

• What sort of environment will our children inherit?
• Will our rivers run dry?
• Can our cities survive?
• How will we fuel the future?

The University of Sydney's new Institute for Sustainable Solutions will be a focal point for outstanding research in these issues, providing new ways of thinking about solutions.

The Institute will bring together some of the world's leading thinkers, researchers and educators in disciplines such as renewable energy, climate change, population growth, health, and food and energy security. Many of them are already working at the University of Sydney. Many more will join us.
