Registration is now open for the one-day event "Sustainable planet, sustainable health - how science-based solutions can drive transformative change" on June 1, 2022! The event is organized by the Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI) and the University Alliance Stockholm Trio, consisting of the Karolinska Institute, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, and Stockholm University. "Sustainable planet, sustainable health" is organized in conjunction with the Stockholm+50 conference convened by the Swedish government and the United Nations to commemorate 50 years since the 1972 UN Conference on the Human Environment that was held in Stockholm.
This event will focus on how academics and scientists can further develop capacities to support transformations for sustainable health for people and planet. The program includes an exciting line-up of speakers on topics such as sustainable food production, accountability, and sustainable consumption. Parallel Session 4, "Governing sustainability transformations", is co-coordinated by Karin Bäckstrand, Principal Investigator of Transformative Partnerships 2030 and Professor of Environmental Social Science at Stockholm University.
Registration is required for on-site attendance, but those planning to join remotely will be able to stream the event without registration.
