GSSD Mapping Design

Domains of Human Activity

We focus on three clusters of foundational human activities, (a) population, (b) energy and resource uses, and (c) technology-centered activities, and two boundary conditions, (1) conflict and violence, and (2) modes of governance and institutions.

Each domain is disaggregated as follows:

Population

· Population dynamics
· Urbanization
· Migration & dislocation
· Consumption patterns
· Unmet basic needs

Energy & Natural Resources

· Energy use & sources
· Forests & land uses
· Water uses & sources
· Agricultural & rural activities

Technology

· Trade & finance
· Industry & manufacturing
· Mobility & transport

(1) Conflict and War

(2) Governance & Institutions
