Climate vision - what is the role of universities in combating climate change?

How can universities be a driving force in the fight against climate change? What expectations can placed on scientists, researchers and teachers and how do we involve students?

What needs to be done so universities can build partnerships with local, national and international communities, and how can universities develop powerful knowledge, and also educate students to enable the massive transitions we need to live well with climate change. In particular, to explore how to create open, creative spaces for collaboration around these issues both within the university and in partnership with others from outside the university. Keri Facer will lead a dialog with university leaders, politicians responsible for education, and politicians working with the environmental policy for Sweden to discuss climate change challenges.
