Lecture series with colloquia
In this lecture series with an international focus, Klaus Töpfer addresses the issue of a sustainable global environmental policy. Mastering environmental problems and fighting poverty are key requirements for long-term peaceful co-existence. In order to achieve sustainable development and economic growth, ecological and economic aspects must go hand in hand. The topic of the lecture series is based on the action plan from the Johannesburg Summit in 2002. In ten public evening events, Klaus Töpfer and his guest speakers will discuss problem areas such as fighting poverty, changes in consumer and production habits, responsible use of natural resources as a basis for economic and social development, emissions and climate change or bio diversity and cultural diversity.
