On 24 September 2024, Lund University is hosting a PhD Conference on Sustainable Development to encourage interdisciplinary collaboration to advance academic research on sustainability. The conference is organized by the Agenda 2030 Graduate School at Lund University and is intended to be a space to share ideas, learn, and explore. The theme for this year’s conference is “Societal transformation and the University“.

“Work on questions relating to sustainable development at universities is about shaping the future or contributing towards societal transformation. How knowledge production can contribute to a different tomorrow is, however, far from clear or uncontested. This year’s theme invites participants to “dig where they stand” with a view to highlighting plurality, difference and imagination on the topic of how work at universities can contribute to societal transformation”.

The programme for the conference can be found here.
