Mission statement:
Two universities working together for sustainable development. Initially GMV was the product of the co-operation organisation School of Environmental Science, that started in the early nineties. In 2001 Chalmers and University of Gothenburg mandated GMV as a co-operation platform for sustainable development and environmental research. Multidisciplinary approach GMV´s approach towards sustainable development is multidisciplinary in nature. It therefore involves all faculties and departments at both universities. Such an approach adds value to all stakeholders, as traditionally it has been difficult to put interdisciplinary ideas into practice. Research platform and scientific network GMV has successfully established and maintained a platform of about 500 researchers at Chalmers and University of Gothenburg, that mobilises interdisciplinary research within different projects and centres.
