Target group: Young people and youth organizations interested in sustainability work.
Course language: English
Costs: Sida Partnership Forum covers room and board. Swedish organizations covers travel costs.
Description: The purpose of the days is to look at sustainability from a variety of angles. Sustainability can be broken down into the environmental, economical and the social dimension. Having in mind that the three dimensions overlaps and can be mutually exclusive and mutually reinforcing the Summer Academy tackles sustainability with an intersectional approach.
As we close in to the Summer Academy the program will be updated with names and sessions. Don’t hesitate to contact LSU or Sida if you have suggestions or ideas for the program.
