Professor Edvard Hviding driver langsiktig antropologisk forskning i det sørlige Stillehav og leder forskningsgruppen Bergen Pacific Studies. Han er også æresprofessor i Stillehavsstudier ved University of the South Pacific i Suva, Fiji. Hviding leder det internasjonale, tverrfaglige forskningsprosjektet “Island Lives, Ocean States: Sea-level Rise and Maritime Sovereignties in the Pacific” (finansiert av Norges forskningsråds TOPPFORSK-program, 2018-2024), og han har siden 2020 også vært koordinator av Norway-Pacific Ocean-Climate Scholarship programme (N-POC), et ambisiøst partnerskap i tverrfaglig doktporgradsutdanning mellom Universitetet i Bergen og University of the South Pacific, finansiert for 2020-2026 av Norad under Norhed II-programmet. I 2012-2016 var han vitenskapelig koordinator av det internasjonale forskningskonsortiet ECOPAS, the European Consortium for Pacific Studies (finansiert av EUs 7. rammeprogram). Som del av arbeidet med ECOPAS var Hviding i 2015 Executive Producer av den fijianske/samoanske sceneforestillingen “Moana: the Rising of the Sea”, som ble fremført på Festspillene i Bergen i et samarbeid mellom Festspillene og Universitetet i Bergen, og deretter gjennomførte en Europaturné. I 2008-12 ledet Hviding det store internasjonale NFR-finansierte prosjektet Pacific Alternatives: Cultural Heritage and Political Innovation in Oceania (finansiert av Norges forskningsråd, med 12 internasjonale samarbeidsinstitusjoner). I 2012-13 var han styreleder for den nordamerikanske Association for Social Anthropology in Oceania (ASAO).
Hviding har siden 1986 vært engasjert i langsiktig forskning i Melanesia, og har gjennomført nærmere fire års feltarbeid i Solomon Islands, med hovedfokus på Marovo Lagoon. Han har hatt mange kortere forskningsopphold i en rekke andre steder i det sørlige Stillehav (inkludert Papua New Guinea, Vanuatu, Fiji, Samoa, Tonga, Cook Islands) i forbindelse med rådgivningsarbeid for FN-systemet, EU, Stillehavets regionale organisasjoner og Norges Utenriksdepartement, og har hatt flere lengre opphold som gjesteforsker ved University of Hawai'i, University of Cambridge og University of the South Pacific.
For sin langvarige innsats i utvikling sammen med UNESCO av lokalspråksforankrede utdanningsmaterialer mottok Hviding i 2010 medaljegraden (S.I.M.) av Order of Solomon Islands.
Siden 2016 har Hviding deltatt som vitenskapelig rådgiver og diplomatisk representant for Norge, Palau og FNs avdeling for økonomiske og sosiale saker på en lang rekke internasjonale møter, forhandlinger og delegasjonsreiser i New York, Stillehavsregionen og andre steder. Med bakgrunn i dette vitenskapsdiplomatiske arbeidet ledet han i perioden 2018-2021 det treårige pilotprosjektet SDG Bergen Science Advice på oppdrag fra UiBs rektorat, med mandat om å utvikle plattformer for vitenskapelig rådgiving i forhold til FNs 2030-Agenda for bærekraftig utvikling. Under dette mandatet har han på vegne av UiB blant annet planlagt, organisert og gjennomført (ofte som ordstyrer) en rekke vitenskapsdiplomatiske paneldebatter og sidearrangementer ved store internasjonale konferanser i FN-regi, inkludert UNFCCCs COP-møter og FNs årlige politiske høynivåforum for bærekraftig utvikling.
Hviding’s publikasjoner omfatter ca. 75 tidsskriftartikler, bokkapitler og publiserte konferanseinnlegg, 10 bøker, og mange publiserte forskningsrapporter og formidlingsbidrag. Bøkene inkluderer monografiene Guardians of Marovo Lagoon (1996), Islands of Rainforest (2000, med Tim Bayliss-Smith, republisert 2019), og Reef and Rainforest: An Environmental Encyclopedia of Marovo Lagoon (2005, revidert versjon publisert 2011); og de redigerte antologiene Made in Oceania (2011, med Knut Rio), The Ethnographic Experiment (2014, med Cato Berg), Pacific Alternatives (2015, med Geoffrey White) og Anthropology in Norway (2021, med Synnøve Bendixsen).

Professor Edvard Hviding er leder av forskningsgruppen Bergen Pacific Studies ved Universitetet i Bergen.
Hviding er i perioden 2018-2025 vitenskapelig leder for det store tverrfaglige prosjektet Island Lives, Ocean States: Sea Level Rise and Maritime Sovereignties in the Pacific, som er finansiert av Norges forskningsråds TOPPFORSK-program.
Han var fra 2012 til 2015 koordinator av det internasjonale forskningskonsortiet ECOPAS (European Consortium for Pacific Studies), finansiert av EUs 7. rammeprogram. Konsortiet, som bestod av de fire ledende sentre for Stillehavsforskning i Europa, samt University of the South Pacific og Papua New Guineas nasjonale forskningsinstitutt, hadde som sitt formål å organisere forskersamfunn og regional og internasjonal policy i forhold til klimaendring og relaterte lokale og regionale prosesser på Stillehavsøyene.
I 2008-2012 ledet Hviding det internasjonale forskningsprogrammet Pacific Alternatives: Cultural Heritage and Political Innovation in Oceania, som var finansiert av Norges forskningsråd (FRISAM). Programmet hadde University of Hawai'i som hovedsamarbeidspartner, og inkluderte en rekke øvrige institusjonelle partnere i Stillehavsregionen (inkludert nasjonalmuseene i Solomon Islands of Vanuatu), USA, Europa og Australia.
Western Solomons Research Database
Sammen med postdoktor Cato Berg og Graham Baines, assosiert forsker i Bergen Pacific Studies, grunnla Hviding "The Bergen Initiative". Dette tiltaket har sitt grunnlag i en avtale med Western Province i Solomon Islands, og tar tar sikte på å gjøre forskningsmateriale og forsker-kompetanse tilgjengelig for provinsen i forbindelse med de behov for kunnskap og ekspertise som oppstod etter jordskjelv- og tsunami-katastrofen i 2007. På denne bakgrunn ble Western Solomons Research Database etablert i 2008, og drevet frem til 2028.
Antropologisk dokumentarfilm
I samarbeid med Rolf Scott og National Museum of Solomon Islands har Edvard Hviding produsert en rekke antropologiske dokumentarfilmer basert på sitt arbeid i Solomon Islands.
