The core task of Gothenburg Centre for Sustainable Development (GMV) is to create and facilitate cooperation, between and within Chalmers and the University of Gothenburg, with an aim to generate and practically implement knowledge about sustainable development. In order to develop solutions to global challenges, we bring academic disciplines together to create new knowledge. Moreover, practical implementation of knowledge requires collaboration between academia and other actors in society. To this end, we create meeting places and bring together different types of expertise in order to promote sustainable development within research, education and cooperation.
[26 Mar 2021] An afternoon in the middle of March the new GMV collaboration concept "Researchers fika" was carried out. Ulla Tang and Mélanie Despeisse from the University of Gothenburg and Chalmers University of Technology respectively, gave speed talks on the theme "Measuring sustainability in production systems: Examples from health care and manufacturing".
[25 Mar 2021] This week, a new version of the membership database for the Research Network for Sustainable Development was launched, where one can search for research who contribute with knowledge to one or more of the Sustainable Development Goals. The database also includes information about international research collaboration.
[24 Mar 2021] Right now, the Student Sustainability Hub is offering an answer, among many, to the question: Who are the students of Gothenburg? Through the campaign #StudentsOfGbg students get the opportunity to present themselves and their sustainability commitment on the Student Sustainability Hub`s Instagram. Nominations for the campaign are still open for students at Chalmers and the University of Gothenburg.
