The Center for International Environment and Resource Policy (CIERP) is an interdisciplinary education and research organization founded in 1992, devoted to the study of international sustainable development, within The Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, at Tufts University.
CIERP is a research center at The Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy devoted to research, education, and policy-making in sustainable development. Its areas of inquiry, called research programs, include: Energy, Climate and Innovation; Agriculture, Forests, and Biodiversity; Sustainable Development Diplomacy and Governance; Sustainable Development Economics; and Water and Oceans. The Center describes its approach as multidisciplinary, looking for "innovative approaches to shifting global development onto a path that is more environmentally, socially, and economically sustainable," analyzing how "economic and social activities impact the environment, and design strategies for meeting human needs without straining the planet’s resources."
The research arm of CIERP is composed of three core faculty members, with five affiliated faculty from The Fletcher School and Tufts University as well as between 5 and 10 research fellows. Its education activities include offering courses at the master’s level as part of The Fletcher School's International Environment and Resource Policy field and direction and supervision of PhD students. While the center's outlook is global, faculty research concentrates on the United States, China, India, Brazil, and Niger.
