The Global Mountain Safeguard Research (GLOMOS) programme: Linking academia and the United Nations system for transformative resilience in mountain regions
Global Mountain Safeguard Research (GLOMOS) is a collaborative scientific program between the United Nations University Institute for Environment and Human Security (UNU-EHS) and Eurac Research. GLOMOS conducts applied and transdisciplinary research to support mountain livelihoods and sustainable mountain development.
The international academic community is committed to finding solutions to the challenges faced in mountain regions. Governments, too, have been developing adaptation plans and policies to improve living conditions and opportunities for mountain communities. However, ensuring that these efforts have a strong impact requires coordinated action between theory and practice. Global Mountain Safeguard Research (GLOMOS) seeks to respond to this need with its mission to turn science into action.
