TripleED has secured significant research funding to fuel our work! This achievement is not just about financial support; it’s the lifeblood that enables us to explore, innovate, and contribute to critical conversations in extreme context studies.

Saying No: The Impact on Custodianship Processes of Elite Organizations

This three-year project, funded by the Swedish Research Council with a grant of 4,919,000 SEK, delves into the intricate processes of saying “no” within elite organizations. Using the Peloton de Gendarmerie de Haute Montagne in Chamonix as a case study, the project examines how decision-making impacts custodianship in high-stakes environments.

From TripleED, Markus and Virginie will lead this groundbreaking initiative, collaborating closely with mountain rescue teams to generate insights that could redefine organizational resilience and decision-making in extreme contexts.

Workshop: In Extremis Umeå 2025

TripleED has also secured funding for an international workshop, In Extremis Umeå 2025, supported by the Swedish Research Council with 192,700 SEK. This workshop will bring together leading scholars and practitioners to exchange ideas and strategies for navigating extreme situations.

Organized by Markus, this event will transform Umeå into a hub of innovation and dialogue, strengthening TripleED’s position as a global thought leader in the field.

Why This Matters

Research funding is more than numbers; it’s the fuel that powers our academic endeavors. These grants allow us to:

• Deepen our understanding of extreme contexts.
• Build meaningful collaborations with elite organizations like the Peloton de Gendarmerie.
• Bring together thought leaders and practitioners to share and co-create knowledge.

For the TripleED team, this funding represents an opportunity to make a real-world impact by addressing critical challenges faced by organizations operating in extreme environments.
