Sustainability Research & Policy Network (SRPN) will provide a worldwide, online community for research in all areas of sustainability and policy, following the model of other subject matter networks within SSRN.
SRPN is expected to become a comprehensive online resource for research in sustainability and policy, providing scholars with access to current work in their field and facilitating research and scholarship.
SRPN is sponsored by GSE Research, a new online publisher whose aim is to provide a valuable bridge between scholarly research and practice in the fields of governance, environment and sustainability. GSE offers a fast and friendly publication process and global dissemination of your work. Authors retain the right to publish later versions elsewhere if desired. SRPN's founding director is John Peters, CEO of GSE Research (john.peters@gseresearch.com) and is edited by Colin Fisher from Nottingham Business School, Nottingham Trent University, and Timothy M. Devinney from University of Technology, Sydney (UTS), Faculty of Business.
Initially, SRPN will begin with the following 25 Subject Matter eJournals, and subscriptions will be free during the start-up phase through September 2012. SRPN will also begin with two Research Paper Series - Center for Robust Decisionmaking on Climate & Energy Policy (RDCEP) Working Paper Series and International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) Discussion Paper Series.
