The Climate Change, Agriculture and Development (CC-AD) cluster conducts research on agri-food systems across the global and local scale. 

The Environmental Governance (ENGOV) cluster is a composite research group with members from backgrounds in both social (e.g. economics, anthropology) and natural (e.g. biology, ecology) sciences, based at Noragric. The group enjoys a substantial international network of collaborating partners.

The Rights, Accountability and Power in Development (RAPID) cluster works to further Noragric’s considerable experience in the fields of rights & power in development.

The Conflict, Human Security and Development (CHSD) cluster focuses on the links between conflict, human security and development, with a particular emphasis on development processes in post-conflict and post-disaster contexts.
