Mistra Mineral Governance joins several research environments together for its interdisciplinary research.

Lund University (LU)

Environmental and Energy systems Studies (EESS) is a part of the Faculty of Engineering at Lund University. Research areas include low carbon transitions and governance, industrial decarbonisation, energy security and critical raw material supply chains. The research involves policy analysis, transition studies, system studies, life cycle analyses and technology assessments. Its researchers come from different disciplines with expertise in the engineering sciences, as well as economics and political science. Research is done in close contact with stakeholders such as policymakers, municipalities and business actors.

Norwegian Institute for International Affairs (NUIP)

NUIP is a leading centre for research on international issues in Norway in areas of particular relevance to Norwegian foreign policy. NUPI has the Research Group for Climate and Energy and has a long track record of working on energy transition and critical materials together with research institutions in Norway (FNI, Nord University, Econ, FFI), the US (Harvard University, Colubmia University), the UK (Oxford Institute for Energy Studies), as well as internationally (IRENA). In 2017, NUPI, Columbia University and Harvard University published a milestone report on the geopolitics of renewable energy (O’Sullivan et al. 2017).

Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI)

SEI is an international non-profit research institute that tackles environmental and development challenges. SEI has over the past decade consistently been ranked among the most influential environmental policy think tanks in the world in the Global Go To Think Tank Index, and in 2019 it topped the list. In this proposal, SEI combines competences from two research teams, on Energy and Industry Transitions as well as Equity and Rights, in the programme.

Stockholm University (SU)

Stockholm University is one of the world’s top 100 higher education institutes. It is the region's centre for higher education and research within Science, Humanities & Social Sciences, with teaching and research carried out to the highest standard. Two departments are involved in the programme, the Department of Economic History and International Relations and the Department of Political Science. Both are dynamic and strong education and research departments at the Faculty of Social Sciences.

Swedish Institute of International Affairs (UI)

Utrikespolitiska institutet was founded in 1938 as a politically independent organization providing information, analysis and research on global political issues. The Institute has an important function as a forum for debate on international issues and as a meeting place for both academics and practitioners, journalists and politicians. The Institute's research programs include “Europe”, “East Asia”, “Middle East/North Africa”, and “Global Politics and Security”, and two new centers focus on Russia/Eastern Europe and China respectively.
