Expert Panel on Sustainable Development

Sustainable development is fundamental to all decision-making in society. However, we often lack the ability to apply it to our everyday life and grasp the opportunities it provides. The expert panel was hosted by Sitra from 2013 to 2018 and continues under a new host to help make the voice of science better heard.

Sustainability solutions

Our daily lives, decision-making practices and business can fit within the earth’s carrying capacity. It pays to seize sustainable solutions right now, as they can help us stop overconsumption and biodiversity loss and mitigate climate change.
