Sustainable at Work: Academic Flying

Lund University has high ambitions for integrating sustainable development into its education, research, external engagement and organisational development, and has been ranked the third most sustainable university in the world. Being an internationally recognised university is often thought to necessitate a considerable amount of air travel. To meet the goals of reducing climate emissions from travel and emissions in line with the Paris Agreement, there needs to be a greater focus on behavioural change in academia. Welcome to a workshop where we will explore opportunities, challenges and solutions to change travel norms and reduce air travel in academia in general and at Lund University in particular.
