Venue

C206, Graduate School of Biosphere Science

 

The UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) consist of 17 interdependent goals that are expected to be achieved by 2030. We at the Graduate School of Biosphere Science have conducted comprehensive research and education which are directly involved in at least half of the goals (No Poverty, Zero Hunger, Good Health and Well-being, Clean Water, Responsible Consumption and Production, Climate Action, Life Below Water, Life of Land). In this symposium, through a total of 7 sessions covering environment ~ biological diversity ~ bio-resource production ~ food sciences, researchers and students from eight partner universities in Asia will deliver their research outcomes or country reports which will then be followed by relevant research presentations (oral or poster) by GSBS students. At the end, we are going to discuss how we could elaborate comprehensive solutions or breakthroughs to help achieve the UN’s SDGs, to pursue a sustainable and peaceful world through our researches.

For the details of the program, please refer to the following poster.
