As part of the celebrations of its 50th anniversary, Iscte - University Institute of Lisbon will hold a week dedicated to the sustainability area, with several activities and initiatives focused on this topic.

Given the importance of educating for the digital and climate transition, and for the pursuit of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals to be achieved by 2030, a conference will be held under the issue of "Universities in the era of digital and climate transformation".

Iscte aims to promote reflection on the role of Higher Education Institutions in the digital and climate transition we are currently living, discussing the most relevant aspects of the opportunities and challenges of this transformation.

In order to extend this reflection to the whole Iscte academic community, an Exhibition on the Sustainable Development Goals will also be held, as well as a tour around the Iscte Campus (SDG Route), a Masterclass on the use of waste in art and design, and the construction of a work of art made from waste. In addition to these, many other activities will take place throughout this week.
