Organisation profile
The Eco-Innovation Research Centre (EIRC) is a multi-actor centre with over 25 academic staff and 27 postgraduates focused on the innovative development of ‘high value-added technologies/products/processes from natural resources’ and ‘low environmental impact processing/growth methods’. Sustainable solutions for the future development of industries such as the marine, agriculture, forestry and food sectors, and ‘green’ chemistry for bio-pesticides and pharmaceutical synthesis, require a collaborative approach. Eco-Innovation Research at SETU is uniquely supported across this broad range of disciplines.
UN Sustainable Development Goals
In 2015, UN member states agreed to 17 global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure prosperity for all. Our work contributes towards the following SDG(s):
