The European Centre for Energy and Resource Security (EUCERS) was established in the Department of War Studies at King’s College London in October 2010 and is focused on promoting an understanding of how our use of energy and resources affects International Relations. Economic competition over energy resources, raw materials and water intensifies and an increasing number of questions and problems have to be solved using holistic approaches and wider national and international political frameworks. EUCERS is determined to contribute to these questions and to point out possible solutions to a core problem of modern economies, societies and international relations by offering research and a platform for discussion. Our activities include our EUCERS Strategy Paper series on topics of energy and resource security, a monthly newsletter with two expert pieces and analysis of developments in energy and resource security in every edition and regular held events at King’s College London, which offer a platform for policy makers, experts, the general public and media to meet and exchange thoughts, views, and criticism.
