SUMMARY:The Turn to Sustainability?
DESCRIPTION:The concept of “sustainability” has become increasingly popular
  in recent years. Today, it is the normative guiding principle of the inter
 national community. The “2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development”, adopted 
 by the United Nations in September 2015, represents the latest highlight wi
 th regard to this development. It aims at making global development sociall
 y, environmentally and economically sustainable and thus seeks to provide f
 uture generations with the opportunity to fulfil their aspirations for a be
 tter life. As a result, sustainability has also become an increasingly rele
 vant point of reference for politics, economy and science at the national l
 evel.\n\nThe first part of the symposium will focus on the crucial role of 
 science for sustainable development and will identify its specific contribu
 tion to the implementation of the 2030 Agenda. Based on this, the second pa
 rt of the program will address what implications science for sustainable de
 velopment has on science policy and research funding. With this symposium, 
 the Leopoldina builds on the primary focus of activities of Leopoldina Pres
 ident Professor Dr. Jörg Hacker in the United Nations Secretary-General’s S
 cientific Advisory Board and continues the dialogue between science and pol
 itics on sustainability, which the Leopoldina has started in November 2012 
 with a workshop on “Sustainability in Science”.\n\nFurther Information\n\nT
