Connected World

CLUE+ is a central partner to the Connected World research theme.

“CLUE+ strongly cherishes a societal perspective. I’m talking about the most relevant societal issues of today. Migration, the environment, sustainability, globalization, digitization – the digitized world. The Connected World actually. These are the major issues that we study. Issues that cannot do with a traditional disciplinary perspective only", according to director Gert-Jan Burgers. Look at a couple of our interdisciplinary projects.
