The main aim of the Sustainable Futures lecture series is to equip participants with the knowledge, skills and perspectives they need to actively engage in sustainability. By promoting critical thinking, interdisciplinary dialog, and showcasing practical examples of sustainable practices, we aim to inspire individuals to take action and create positive change in their disciplines, personal choices, communities, and beyond.

What content will be covered?

The lecture series covers a wide range of topics including sustainable business practices, food systems, renewable energy technologies, mobility and ethical consumption. By exploring the interconnectedness of environmental, economic and social issues, we aim to achieve a holistic understanding of sustainability and its importance for our common future.
