University collaborates on joint UK-India research project

  9th August 2022

A joint UK-India research project involving University of Gloucestershire has concluded that suburban communities in Latin America, Asia, Africa and Oceania have a poorer quality of life than people living in urban and rural areas as their countries develop.

Professor Kenny Lynch, Professor of Development and Community within the University’s School of Natural and Social Sciences, collaborated on the new study with academic colleagues from Rothamsted Research, Bangor University, Leeds University and the University of Hyderabad, India.

The research was funded through a joint UK-India project supported by the Economic and Social Research Council, the India Council for Social Science Research and National Research Chairs programme in South Africa. You can find out more on the University website.
