Скачать или смотреть The role of water for sustainability and SDGs - Aalto Sustainability Talks 14.9.2020

Water plays a central role for development and it is a fundament of life on Earth. Water is a key enabler for our well-being as well as for food and energy security. Water has also a critical role for climate change adaptation, as practically all climate-related impacts (except direct consequences from temperature changes) occur due to changes in hydrological cycle. Water can thus also hinder development through e.g. floods, pollution, and increasing water scarcity. As a result, most Sustainable Development Goals i.e. SDGs link to water.

This first-ever session of Aalto Sustainability Talks discusses water's role for sustainability and sustainable development. The session features Associate Professor Marko Keskinen, Postdoctoral Researcher Maija Taka and Professor of Practice Mikko Jalas. The event is chaired by Aalto University's Vice President for Research, Ossi Naukkarinen.

The seminar series is organized by Aalto Sustainability Hub. For more information, visit: https://www.aalto.fi/en/events/aalto-...
