"We are delighted to announce that the fourth Spring Campus Conference of the University Alliance for Sustainability will take place from April 1-5, 2019 at Freie Universität Berlin. The Spring Campus will be on the topic: Re:search. Re:act. Re:design. 'The Future is Now: Driving Sustainable Development'. We will focus on three key topics: Energy, Food and Mobility. We are happy to announce that Prof. Johan Rockström (designated Director, Potsdam Institute of Climate Impact Research) and Prof. Kathryn Harrison (University of British Columbia) already confirmed to open the conference as keynote speakers.

During the conference we will present innovative sustainability research and ESD teaching formats from various disciplines, facilitate interdisciplinary- and transdisciplinary exchange, and foster dialogue with representatives from politics and business. In this way, the Alliance hopes to contribute to spreading innovative ideas, interesting research, and sustainable campus solutions worldwide.
