DAY ZERO
5 February 2020 @ 08:00 - 09:00 CET
Bjørn Enge Bertelsen, Director of the Global Research Programme on Inequality (GRIP), is the moderator for the breakfast seminar for Day Zero of the SDG Conference Bergen 2020.
The seminar on Day Zero asks how the social sciences and the humanities can contribute with knowledge to achieve the SDGs and confront the challenges brought on by the Anthropocene age. The seminar will discuss some profound contemporary issues related to technology development, global inequality, democracy and sustainability.
Day Zero is an opportunity for the higher education sector to reflect upon how the UN Agenda can be driven forward. Day Zero raises topics relevant to the 17 Sustainable Development Goals, and offers an arena for debates, networking and workshops. Day Zero sets the stage for the annual national SDG Conference Bergen, initiated by the University of Bergen.
The seminar is held at Kvarteret in Bergen, 08:00-09.30 on February 5.
