The objective is to engage Norway’s research and higher education communities, politicians, government officials, NGOs, and the business sector in a collective effort to take responsibility for the implementation of the SDGs. The conference participants will discuss how universities can carry out research to inform the implementation of the goals, and to explore how higher education can meet the needs of future generations.

Confirmed speakers include Prime Minister of Norway Erna Solberg and Minister of Education and Research of Norway Torbjørn Røe Isaksen.
