In PLUS research, people are our focus. Everyone is included, from societal thought leaders, to government policy-makers, to high-level civil society advocates – through to entrepreneurs and citizens, including the disenfranchised. These people are our collaborators, our participants, our beneficiaries, our users. PLUS focuses on understanding the spatial information needs of society and responding to those needs in responsible ways – as tools, as systems, as infrastructure, or as ways of thinking. Our work sits at the nexus of urbanization, land tenure, governance, climate change, and transportation – and the grand challenges of sustainability and social equity in the age of the anthropocene.
PLUS RESEARCH PROJECTS
The research group carrying out the projects in the PLUS research theme include staff members of ITC and graduate students, some of whom carry out their research in sandwich constructions with partner universities or research organizations.
