On the 8th of April the 3rd World Symposium on Sustainability Science an Research takes place (online), which is organized by the Hamburg University of Applied Sciences Research and Transfer Centre (HAW).
Sustainability Futures: Challenges and Opportunities Towards a More Sustainable World
It is based on the perceived need to explore and present concrete case studies which illustrate how Sustainability Science and Research can help to achieve the many goals listed in the document "Transforming our world: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development", that the "3rd World Symposium on Sustainability Science and Research” is being brought to life. It follows the first and second Symposia, held in Manchester, UK in April 2017, and in Curitiba, Brazil, in April 2019.
The aims of the "3rd World Symposium on Sustainability Science and Research” are as follows:
- to provide a platform to discuss the contribution of Sustainability Science and Research towards the implementation of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs);
- to mobilise the relevant actors (i.e. government offices and authorities, universities, enterprises, NGOs and grassroots organisations) working with sustainable development, to gather and deliberate how Sustainability Science and Research can help to achieve the SDGs;
- to offer an opportunity for those working with Sustainability Science and Research, and with its various ramifications, to meet their peers from across the world, and to display and present their works;
- to foster the exchange of information, ideas and experiences acquired in the execution of projects, from successful initiatives and good practice.
