With the climate and ecological crises growing, King's academics are at the forefront of research – delivering innovative analysis and fair, effective sustainability solutions.
Our researchers are moving beyond advocacy of problems, towards delivering tangible solutions at scale. From generating new technologies and business models to detecting wildfires, promoting digital innovation and ethical AI, reducing health risks from climate extremes, and helping form law, policy and culture, the impact of King's research and innovation can be felt across the globe
Complex and uncertain problems often require new ways of bringing together knowledge, data and expertise. We enable this through multi-and interdisciplinary research, often working with knowledge partners in business, government and civil society.
Together, our community of world-leading scholars mobilise a broad range of knowledge and perspectives to create a more sustainable future for all.

Our research works to deepen understanding of climate change, biodiversity loss, and the actions needed to address them. However, we also recognise that research and innovation activities themselves can have environmental impacts. We are committed to continually improving the way research is conducted to ensure our practices are environmentally sustainable. From reducing reliance on single-use plastics to improving the efficiency and management of cold storage, our researchers and professional staff are driving innovation within the research process.
