Cluster Leader: Prof Chen Lin

The Economy and Growth Cluster focuses on utilizing cutting-edge remote sensing technology combined with diverse data sources to advance our understanding of sustainable development and growth. Our key objectives and research areas include:

Sustainable Development Drivers and Impediments:

Identifying and analyzing the factors that promote or hinder sustainable development.

Assessing the impact of policy interventions on sustainable economic practices.

Dynamics of Sustainability and Economic Growth:

Exploring the complex interactions between sustainability initiatives and economic growth patterns.

Evaluating the long-term economic impacts of environmental sustainability measures.

Health and Economic Interactions:

Investigating the interrelationships between public health outcomes and economic growth.

Analyzing how economic policies influence health indicators and vice versa.

Impact of (Un)Sustainability on Health:

Understanding how unsustainable practices adversely affect public health.

Studying the health benefits associated with sustainable development initiatives.

Data Integration and Remote Sensing:

Employing remote sensing technology to gather and integrate data from various sources.

Leveraging big data analytics to derive insights and inform policy decisions.

Innovative Approaches to Growth Measurement:

Developing new methodologies to measure economic growth in the context of sustainability.

Utilizing remote sensing data to monitor real-time changes in economic activities and their environmental impacts.

Our cluster's research aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the multifaceted nature of sustainable growth and development, contributing valuable insights to policymakers and stakeholders globally.
