Human Wellbeing for a Better World. The Centre for the Study of Global Development creates a unified space for multi and interdisciplinary research within the Faculty of Wellbeing Education and Language Studies. The core objective of research from the Centre is to advance aspects of the sustainable development goals within and across all countries that relate to poverty, health, well-being, education, decent jobs, and employment while also critiquing globalised development agendas and exploring and showcasing localised conceptualisations of and approaches to development. The Centre believes it is vital to tackle development challenges through an interdisciplinary lens and that by working across disciplines, a better understanding of development problems can lead to sustainable solutions.

To achieve this goal, the Centre works with scholars from different social science and geographic backgrounds to research development problems to achieve progress for poor and marginalised groups in society.
