Who We Are

A2R research teams comprise scientists

at the Integration and Application Network

of University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science

“As an organization, IAN looks to evaluate environmental health, including linkages between human and natural systems. On the global scale, our work seeks to address environmental inequities and ensure that those most affected by environmental change are included in decision-making.”

IAN scientists, science communicators, and other staff “have been at the forefront of science application and integration since 2002.”

Our work “depends on the active engagement of diverse stakeholder groups. We are committed to promoting the values of diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice (DEIJ) in our work to assess and protect natural systems and the peoples that depend on them. This is integral to achieving our vision of a world where all communities are empowered to make relevant environmental decisions–decisions that are made using good science and reliable, relevant information.”
