The Sustainable Development Studies Network is a Brussels-based research and education organization established in 2019, dedicated to promoting sustainability through interdisciplinary research, innovation, and capacity building. The institution focuses on addressing global and local environmental challenges by developing practical, policy-oriented solutions that align with both European and international sustainability frameworks. SDSN operates at the intersection of environmental policy, digital transformation, and socio-economic development, striving to generate impactful knowledge that facilitates the transition toward climate-resilient and inclusive societies. Through a strong emphasis on the circular economy and green innovation, the organization contributes to shaping sustainable development practices across sectors.

SDSN plays a significant role in the planning, execution, and dissemination of outcomes within EU-funded programmes such as Erasmus+, Horizon Europe, Digital Europe, and INTERREG. Its expertise spans the development of sustainability-focused curricula, applied research, and strategic consulting services that support public institutions, educational entities, NGOs, and private sector stakeholders. SDSN’s mission is to foster environmental sustainability through collaborative initiatives at the local, national, regional, and global levels. Its vision is to contribute to systemic transformation by advancing sustainability through education, research, and policy integration, particularly in areas such as green skills development, digitalization, and responsible resource management. Through a diverse portfolio of projects, including those centered on renewable energy, circular waste management, and inclusive digital training, SDSN continuously works to build institutional and individual capacities for a more sustainable and equitable future.
