This online event is based on the report published by WWF in June about transfer and cooperation projects for sustainability transformation at the higher education level in Switzerland and Europe.

 Research makes an important contribution to sustainable development by generating knowledge, identifying challenges, and developing new solution approaches. However, research rarely produces direct real-world impacts on its own. Cooperation and partnerships between students and researchers from academic institutions as well as practice partners have become essential in this context in order to translate research into practice. The goal of these projects is to drive sustainable societal and economic change. All participants should acquire relevant competencies and skills through this valuable collaborative engagement for sustainable development.​
