Research will also be central to the program,
recognizing that we now need more insights from the
social sciences and humanities than from biology and
the physical sciences. It would focus on analyzing and
evaluating the attitudes and practices of individuals
and groups. In relation to both outreach and research
functions, MAHB envisions establishing an "observatory"
on behavior. It would gather evidence from existing
documents and established databases as well as from a
variety of global stakeholders, and promote new
directions for outreach and new research projects.
The behavioral observatory will establish a MAHB-line
(similar to Medline), providing access to social science
and humanities research relating to sustainability. It will
have an interactive portal receiving and providing
up-to-date information about particular environmental
problems; human factors relating to these problems;
and initiatives to deal with them.
