2 Dec 2021: World Sustainable Development Teach-In Day presents open access live lectures on sustainable development

Hamburg, 12 November 2021 – The World Sustainable Development Teach-In Day (WSDTID), a decade-long global movement that aims to raise and spread awareness of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) – the universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity by 2030 – is being organized on 2 December 2021 by the European School of Sustainability Science and Research (ESSSR) at the Hamburg University of Applied Sciences, Germany.
This event showcases a large set of open access online lectures. University staff, NGO representatives and further sustainability lecturers from all over the world will present how their actions and initiatives contribute towards achieving the UN SDGs. The tentative programme with lectures in English, Spanish and Portuguese has just been released and can be accessed on the central website www.esssr.eu/wsdtid.

Besides watching the lectures on 2 Dec 2021, participants can register for the event and log on to a dedicated online platform beforehand where they can exchange with the participating community and will find further lecture announcements by speakers who organize complementary sustainability lectures on their own.
