Leaders and organisations in the Network of Interdisciplinary and Transdisciplinary Research Organisations – Oceania are listed here. Members of the Executive (2020-2021) are listed at the bottom of the page.
At the 2020 business meeting two new categories of members were approved:
- Honorary members – previous members who have stepped down from leadership positions in interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research organisations and who continue to support the aims of NITRO-Oceania
- Global members – members who hold leadership positions in interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research organisations outside Oceania and who support the aims of NITRO-Oceania.
To identify members who are honorary or global look under “role and organisation” in the full list of members.
If you hold a leadership role in an interdisciplinary or transdisciplinary research organisation in the Oceania region (or beyond) and agree with the aims of the Network, join us!
