We are delighted to invite you to the first open forum with Nordic Research Network for Sustainable Healthcare (NRNSH)!

This forum is an introductory event to the network, centred around the topic "Sustainable healthcare as a research area globally".

NRNSH was recently launched with the mission to increase research, innovation and research education in sustainable healthcare – within and between the network partners – as well as to inspire the international research community. Founding partners are Nordic Center for Sustainable Healthcare (NCSH), Chalmers University of Technology, Technical University of Denmark (DTU), Lund University and Malmö University. Read more about NRNSH here.

Sustainable healthcare is a major driving force of sustainable development. Not least due to healthcare systems' climate footprint (constituting 4.4% of the global net emissions), but because systems include diverse areas. Everything from disease prevention and construction, to management, technologies and logistics. Such a complex scene demands a broad collaboration between different research disciplines

Join in and contribute to the first open forum of its kind!

Date: 20 October 2022

Time: 13.30–17.00 CET (mingle on-site starts at 13.00)

Location: (Hybrid) Zoom and in Malmö at Scandic S:t Jörgen. To participate in person at the venue, send an email to Caroline Charlier () with the title "NRNSH First Open Forum".
