Graduate School welcomes you to this year's panel discussion on "Research >> Transformation!

TRANSFORMATION AS AN IMPULSE – SUSTAINABLE CHANGE AS A JOINT TASK

We are in a time of technological, economic and environmental transformation. The ability to adapt and transform is crucial to meeting the challenges of this dynamic world.

The moderated panel discussion Research >> Transformation as part of the Opening Days 2024 will focus on exploring concepts of transformation. We will exchange ideas, gain valuable perspectives and gather inspiration to actively contribute to shaping sustainable change.

Together with researchers from Leuphana University, Utrecht University (Netherlands) and the Siemens Stiftung, we want to critically ask the question: what does (sustainable) transformation mean?

The discussion will focus on the challenges and opportunities that arise from the pursuit of a more sustainable future. Innovative approaches and best practices will be presented that can help to reshape social and economic structures.

The event is open to all members of the university.
