The Oxford Networks for the Environment (ONE) mobilise the University’s expertise in science, technology, business and society. They enable Oxford to find solutions to the complex, converging challenges of energy, water, and food security, climate change and threats to biodiversity.
ONE contributes to humanity’s capacity to make sustainable use of our natural resources for the benefit of all people and for the natural world.
The biggest challenge the world faces is to provide sufficient food, water and energy to allow everyone to live decent lives in the face of a rising population, declining fossil-fuel reserves, and the threat of climate change.
The University of Oxford is responding by delivering world-leading, diverse and innovative environmental research and education. The Oxford Networks for the Environment (ONE) aim to harness and showcase our unique capacity in this area.
