HOST - House of Sustainable Transitions (VUB Group of Expertise in Applied Research) project is a part of the VUB network involving many research groups. For the complete overview of the members, click here.
The mission of HOST is to advance the transition to a green, digital, and just society by understanding the processes, policies, and actors driving change. Our goal is to achieve this through the translation of coherent research in a clear valorisation agenda that connects policy fields and sectors, analyses sustainability and mobilises stakeholders. We aim to accelerate the transition towards a more sustainable world by valorising our tools and expertise.
Our innovation tracks, "Bootcamps", "Analysing sustainability" and "Mobilising people," underscore our commitment to sustainable transitions. We seek to answer questions from companies, cities and citizens like “what can be called sustainable?” (analysis of sustainability), “how do we engage people?” (mobilizing people) and to empower them with the necessary tools and knowledge to so they can accelerate their transition path (bootcamps). We want to enable them to find the root causes of unsustainable behaviour and transform their practices.
