Fostering Sustainability Science leadership: Synergies for bridging capacities across environmental and developmental policy agendas

Solutions for sustainability in different contexts require capacities to comprehend intertwined social, economic and environmental issues. UNU-IAS has been fostering future leaders in sustainability science through education and training. By blending the expertise from its research and multi-stakeholder engagement initiatives, programmes drive synergies towards socio-ecological resilience through enhanced implementation of the Paris Agreement, the Global Biodiversity Framework, and the SDGs.

The event will highlight how UNU-IAS collaborates with universities, NGOs, think tanks, private sectors and youth to develop synergies across biodiversity, climate and the SDGs and explore ways to maximize impacts by bridging the capacities across different sectors and generations.
