The cluster promotes opportunities to engage in interdisciplinary research across CBASS departments, as well as with other leading universities. Furthermore, the cluster helps its members to work in collaborations with social entrepreneurs and thus develop impactful research aimed at supporting social enterprises in their endeavours. In the medium to long term its members will be in a good position to develop high quality research projects which will enhance the expertise and prestige of our college and university.
