The Future of Sustainable Health Care Environments

12 October 2023 08:30 to 16:30 | Seminar
Nordic Centre for Sustainable Healthcare logotype

Are you interested in contributing with your ideas, experience or knowledge about different aspects of healthcare environments, how they affect patients, and how healthare environments can be optimized to be more sustainable for patients, staff and the planet? Come and present your research, your ideas, and/or contribute to discussions and engage in networking for possible future collaboration!

The aim of this seminar is to develop a multidisciplinary network of researchers and others who are interested in and/or have experience from sustainable healthcare environments. Half of the day is for sharing research findings, and the other half for activating the network and its collaborations.

The seminar will be given in English and is co-organized by the Nordic Centre for Sustainable Healthcare, Faculty of Medicine and Faculty of Engineering at Lund University.
Most welcome!
