The Southern African Hub of the UNESCO-MOST BRIDGES Coalition is anchored at the Centre for the Advancement of Scholarship on the main campus of the University of Pretoria.
The Centre for the Advancement of Scholarship is a transdisciplinary research entity, founded with the intention to host projects that emphasize multi- and trans-disciplinary inquiry on topics of social, economic and environmental importance.
The Centre conducts ‘transdisciplinary research that addresses issues of "liveability" in South Africa, on the African continent and beyond. Our aim is to produce socially engaged and cutting edge research that transforms knowledge, makes an impact and benefits individuals and communities.’
The BRIDGES Hub at University of Pretoria seeks to build on the global efforts of the coalition to strengthen the reach and impact of humanities, arts and social science-led sustainability science in partnership with non-academic communities of knowledge in Southern Africa and internationally, through strategic cooperation with other BRIDGES hubs, member organizations and international partners.
