The event will focus on the importance of sustainable lifestyles as a vehicle to meet the SDG goal 12 and interconnections with other SDGs. Ongoing projects of the Sustainable Lifestyles and Education programme will be showcased, along with examples of innovative policies and business cases addressing sustainable consumption and lifestyles.

The event, which is open to the public, will be an explorative and interactive session addressing challenges and opportunities to scale up sustainable lifestyles (in developed and developing countries) providing hands-on examples from research, policy and business. It will be an opportunity to share lessons learnt, co-create new innovative approaches, and build new collective partnerships.
