The Social Science Research Centre at Riga Stradiņš University integrates expertise from environmental studies, health sciences, and security research to explore how social, ecological, and technological systems shape human well-being. The Centre places particular emphasis on food systems as a critical interface between the environment and public health, examining sustainability, consumption patterns, and risks affecting societal resilience. By combining social science perspectives with health and security analysis, the Centre provides interdisciplinary insights that support evidence-based policymaking and strengthen societal preparedness in a rapidly changing world.
