Sustainable Development Academy | SDA 2023

In a first introduction during several lectures participants will learn about the scope and interdependent nature of the 17 sustainability goals. A central question will be the status quo of the implementation process of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its goals.

Focusing then on the SDG 11 and SDG 15 participants will experience how to implement sustainable goals in specific fields of action.

Potsdam, a city of science close to Berlin, is home to leading research institutions in the fields of climate research and sustainability. To gain insight into the work of experts and practitioners, participants will have the chance to attend several site visits to local institutions.

Finally, in the workshop participants design solutions for a real-life challenge by entering into and engaging with each phase of the Design Thinking process.
