The “Territory, Environment and Sustainable Development” Research and Study Group is a multidisciplinary research team that explores African diversity, with particular emphasis on Côte d’Ivoire.
The Research and Study Group on Territories, Environment and Sustainable Development at Alassane Ouattara University in Bouaké is an interdisciplinary scientific platform dedicated to analysing territorial dynamics, environmental issues, and the challenges of sustainable development. It brings together lecturer-researchers, researchers, doctoral candidates, students, and partners around key themes such as spatial planning, environmental management, climate change, urbanisation, local governance, community resilience, and territorial foresight.
Rooted in Ivorian and African realities, the Group aims to produce knowledge that supports public decision-making, assist local stakeholders, and contribute to the promotion of more sustainable, inclusive, and equitable development models. Its activities form part of the scientific mission of Alassane Ouattara University, particularly in the fields of geography, environmental studies, spatial planning, and sustainable territories.
