Sustainability Week: LTH discusses solutions to the climate crisis
Reindustrialisation, coastal perspectives, circular construction and carbon capture. The topics addressed by LTH during Sustainability Week 8–13 April include solutions to the climate crisis and how to use the Earth’s resources more carefully. The programme is aimed at everyone who wants to take part in the discussions on the sustainable strategies of the future.

Sustainability Week is the annual event where Lund University and Lund Municipality invite to discussions and action, serious issues and hopeful visions of the future. The week is an occasion when research on climate and sustainability is given special visibility.
Annika Olsson, Dean of LTH, emphasizes that the Sustainability Week is an opportunity to talk together about the solutions of the future, where LTH's research is of great importance and can play an important role in the discussions. She says:
“We need solutions for the future – solutions to the ongoing climate change and overexploitation of the earth's resources. We need to work on these together. The Faculty's participation in the Sustainability Week, with research that both directly and indirectly benefits a more sustainable world, is an important contribution to the discussions on future strategies.“
