Indebtedness among European households rose considerably during the economic crisis of 2007-2008. A 2016 study by Eurofound concludes that more than half of the Greek

This was the question that researchers at the International Institute for Industrial Environmental Economics asked themselves ahead of the SCORAI conference in Lund. Tools are now available to measure this. Using the TravelCO2 tool, participants' individual carbon footprints were calculated – and the results showed that the conference's total emissions were significantly lower than average.The SCO

With the help of satellite images and interviews, researchers in Lund can present new information about how the drought that hit Syria between 2007 and 2009 affected migration patterns. Their study shows that farmers left their land only when war broke out in 2011, an idea which is at odds with the accepted view of drought as the starting point for migration. When the war in Syria broke out in 201

A unique study has analyzed in detail how EU agricultural subsidies flow down to the local level. The new data show that most income support payments go to intensively farmed regions already above median EU income, while climate-friendly and biodiverse farming regions, as well as poorer regions, are insufficiently funded. Consequently, the majority of payments are going to the regions causing the
