Joint Symposium on Sustainable Futures
Event details
How can we build a more resilient and sustainable world? Join us for a landmark international symposium. This event brings together a prestigious global cohort of institutions to explore "Sustainable Futures" through the lens of critical environmental and social systems.
This symposium features five dedicated research presentations, each focusing on a unique system and its role in a sustainable future. Our partner institutions and their focus areas include:
- Mountains – Presented by the University of York (UoY)
- Air Pollution & Atmospheric Systems – Presented by Lahore College for Women University (LCWU)
- Food Systems – Presented by Kumasi Technical University
- Drylands – Presented by Bayero University, Kano
- Land Systems & Geographical Information Systems (GIS) – Presented by the University of Eswatini
Each organisation will give a 15-minute expert presentation, these will be followed by a collaborative discussion. Our goal is to work together across borders to identify three priority research questions for each system that will help define the next decade of sustainability science.
