| Abstract | The proposal will fund a five day workshop at ICMS, Edinburgh, that will bring together mathematical scientists and interdisciplinary partners from across the globe to identify areas for collaboration in the areas covered by of the Global Challenges Research Fund. These includeEquitable Access to Sustainable Development, i.e. secure and resilient food systems supported by sustainable marine resources and agriculture; sustainable health and well being; inclusive and equitable quality education; clean air, water and sanitation; affordable, reliable, sustainable energy.Sustainable Economies and SocietiesSustainable livelihoods supported by strong foundations for inclusive economic growth and innovationResilience and action on short-term environmental shocks and long-term environmental changeSustainable cities and communitiesSustainable production and consumption of materials and other resourcesHuman Rights, Good Governance and Social JusticeUnderstand and respond effectively to forced displacement and multiple refugee crisesReduce conflict and promote peace, justice and humanitarian actionReduce poverty and inequality, including gender inequalities. | |
