Research centers and platforms

CHIE

CHIE – The centre for healthy indoor environments – is an international centre that aims to create a communication platform promoting healthy indoor environments. The focus lies on research initiatives for knowledge provision and solutions for societal challenges. CHIE's overall goal is to understand how to create sound and sustainable indoor environments to promote human health, well-being, productivity and creativity.

CHIE aims to bridge different research areas in order to understand the complex interactions taking place in indoor environments and determine which research methods and assessment tools can be used.

CIRCLE

CIRCLE is the Centre for Innovation Research at Lund University which across faculties incubates, coordinates, and practices interdisciplinary innovation research. CIRCLE research aims to understand and explain how innovation can contribute to a good society and tackle societal challenges such as economic crises, climate change or the increased globalization of economic activities. This requires advanced insights into how knowledge is created and diffused in organizations, networks, regions, countries, and globally. The research focuses also on how knowledge is turned into innovations and the societal conditions that promote the creation and diffusion of innovation.
