IHDP closes its operation on June 30 2014
The core projects and joint science projects will become part of Future Earth
With the new Future Earth initiative taking shape, IHDP will be the first of the four global environmental change programmes to close its doors on June 30th, 2014, after 24 years of operation.
All of IHDP’s core and joint science projects will become part of Future Earth and have already begun the transitioning process. The new ten-year international research initiative for global environmental change will build on decades of social sciences research excellence of IHDP.
In order to make IHDP knowledge available for future generations, the IHDP office has been developing a comprehensive database that will be publicly accessible. It will contain activities, projects, publications and other relevant information from the programme’s lifetime and thus offer a valuable platform for global environmental change knowledge from the past two and a half decades.
