Research Center
Joint work, data access, or a question you cannot answer alone.
The Research Center works with industry, governments and academia. Collaborations have ranged from a verified greenhouse gas inventory to a study of what actually shifts resident behaviour in a planned community.

Published openly, with authorship shared.
Collaborative work is published with named authors and a citation, in peer-reviewed venues where the subject warrants it. If it is worth doing together it is worth putting your name on.
Ways to work together
- Joint research projects
- Co-designed studies with shared authorship, typically over one to three years, published openly.
- Living lab access
- Use the district as a study environment for a project we are not otherwise involved in.
- Thesis and capstone supervision
- For students and early career researchers. An extended abstract is the starting point.
- Commissioned assessment
- Inventories, impact assessments and baselines, of the kind Dubai Carbon has independently verified for us.
What is the question?
Specific beats general. Even a badly formed question with real data behind it is easier to work with than a well written expression of interest.
