The Budapest Centre for Long-term Sustainability (BC4LS) welcomes distinguished professors and experts to engage in educational, research, and publishing activities as part of our Research Programme, in collaboration with our partner universities and institutes. We encourage our researchers to explore new frontiers in social sciences, both in terms of disciplines covered and methodologies deployed. This led to the creation of the BC4LS Booklet series, which aims to promote the common interest in sustainable balance and development, strengthen cooperation on sustainability, and utilize the creative potential inherent in international knowledge sharing regarding long-term sustainability issues.
BC4LS aims to achieve excellence in sustainability, focusing on areas such as green economy, finance, sustainable development and innovation, green society, and sustainable natural resources. Interdisciplinary viewpoints are taken into account. Our mission is to contribute to transforming thinking about a sustainable future.
