At IRI THESys, we conduct scientific research into the dynamics of human-environment relations. Against the backdrop of climate change, researchers pay particular attention to the intersections between land use practices and issues of water/energy use and governance. This includes research on food-fuel-fibre production, resource extraction and biodiversity management as well as investigations into the relationship between urban centres and their regional and global hinterlands as connected through technical, economic and regulatory infrastructures.
The presented video made by the Humboldt Lab highlights some projects and researchers at IRI THESys. This includes the work of Dr. Ina Säumel and the “Multifunctional Landscapes Research Group”, and Dr. Bettina König and the “ginkoo project on innovation in sustainable land management”. Also on view is the scenic musical reading "Requiem for a Forest," produced by Theatre of the Anthropocene.
This video was published on the occasion of the Long Night of Science 2021.
