Following a setting-the-stage keynote, our discussants and experts will engage in a moderated round table discussion to share insights drawn from practical experience and describe how needed changes in practice must be supported and reinforced by other types of actors. We also engage our audience to identify concrete examples of sustainable lifestyles changes they have made and how they have made them stick.
