World Summit of PhD Students on Sustainable Development 2023

The PhD students currently working on matters of sustainable development will be the ones leading future trends in a 2030-2050 scale when they occupy key roles in academia, industry and other sectors. It is, therefore, vital that they get the best possible training. One important component of this training is the interaction and exchange of information among their peers. Unfortunately, many doctoral students work on their themes in an isolated manner, detached from other interdisciplinary groups. Also, they seldom have the opportunity to present and discuss their work with international PhD students and experts from outside their organisations. Yet, much could be achieved by such an interaction. It is on the basis of the need to address this gap that the World PhD Students Sustainability Summit 2023 is being organised. This is a yearly event, the first of which was held online in 2022.

Event participation is free of charge and open to a broad audience. In order to take part in the World PhD Students Sustainability Summit 2023, interested persons should register by sending the following information:
