Summary, in English

Listening Lund Sound environment centre at Lund university in Sweden is known to be the first interdisciplinary centre created with an aim to coordinate research on sound and sound environmental issues.

Ranging från acoustics to medicin to juridics as well to humanities as musicology and ethnology sound environmental research adresses many interdepentent areas and topics. To be able to get a more complete

comprehension our soundscapes these have to be synchronised and be put in relation to each other.

Interdisciplinary research of this kind is however adressing problems such as administrative, organizational and economical. How do we get researchers from disciplines to work together, to take of their precious time and sometimes even having to compete with the own disciplines and individual institutions for research funding. One of the main problems is: How to develop an organizational framework for interdisciplinary cooperation on soundscape issues that will be satisfying to both researchers and public?
